"Eroge de Subete wa Kaiketsu Dekiru: The Animation" is a Japanese adult animated series that has garnered attention for its unique blend of humor, ecchi content, and fantasy elements. The title roughly translates to "All Problems Can Be Solved with Eroge" in English, hinting at the show's comedic approach to various life situations through the lens of erotic games (eroge). The series revolves around the life of the protagonist, who finds himself in a world where problems, no matter how big or small, can be solved with the help of "eroge" or erotic games. These games are not just a form of entertainment but a tool that can alter reality, providing solutions to the protagonist's and sometimes those around him, dilemmas. Plot The story is set in a somewhat ordinary world but with an extraordinary twist. The protagonist, often depicted as somewhat lazy or disinterested in the mundane aspects of life, finds himself thrust into situations that require extraordinary solutions. This is where "eroge" comes into play. By using these games, he can find resolutions to problems that would otherwise be insurmountable.
The problem is with the "dependency". The only dependency is the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012. The Chilkat .NET assembly is a mixed-mode assembly, where the inner core is written in C++ and compiles to native code. There is a dependency on the VC++ runtime libs. Given that Visual Studio 2012 is new, it won't be already on most computers. Therefore, it needs to be installed. It can be downloaded from Microsoft here:
Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012
If using a .msi install for your app, it should also be possible to include the redist as a merge-module, so that it's automatically installed w/ your app if needed.
Note: Each version of Visual Studio corresponded to a new .NET Framework release:
VS2002 - .NET 1.0 2003 - .NET 1.1 2005 - .NET 2.0 2008 - .NET 3.5 2010 - .NET 4.0 2012 - .NET 4.5The ChilkatDotNet45.dll is for the .NET 4.5 Framework, and therefore needs the VC++ 2012 runtime to be present on the computer.
Likewise, the ChilkatDotNet4.dll is for the 4.0 Framework and needs the VC++ 2010 runtime.
The ChilkatDotNet2.dll is for the 2.0/3.5 Frameworks and requires the VC++ 2005 runtime. (It is unlikely you'll find a computer that doesn't already have the VC++ 2005 runtime already installed.)
