While performing an Installation of UPK Developer, you choose to do a “Server and Client”
Installation. You are prompted to install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable (MSVC++).
You are not sure whether to let the installer install this third party application, so you cancel the
Installation to do some research on it.
After deciding that it would be all right, you return to the installation. However, this time you decide
to perform a “Server” installation because you do not want any client files on your server machine.
This time the Installer does NO prompt you to install MSVC++.
Identify the reason for this.
A.
In the original Installation, after the installer determined that MSVC++ was needed, it was
installed even though you canceled the Installation. The next installation determined that it already
existed on the system.
B.
Because the Developer server contains no real user interface, the third-party applications
including (MSVC ++) do not need to be prompted and will be installed silently. The user will not
seethem in use anyway.
C.
MSVC++ is only a requirement of the Developer Client. Because the second installation was
not installing the client files, the installer does not need to include MSVC++ when installing just the
Developer server.
D.
The installer determined that MSVC++ was already on the system during both installations. In
the original installation, because the client files were being installed, and MSVC++ is a
requirement of the client, the installer wanted to make sure they got installed. It will
alwaysprompted to install MSVC++ when the client is installed.
