This framework package provides various side-by-side optional components from the legacy DirectX SDK. You don't need to do anything to specify the architecture. An 圆4 build of the app uses an 圆4 build of the framework package. Otherwise, the Microsoft Store triggers the installation of the framework package before proceeding with the installation for the app that uses it.Īn x86 build of an app uses an x86 build of the framework package. If the framework package is already installed on the user's device, no further action is necessary. When the user installs your app from the Microsoft Store, it detects the dependency and ensures that the framework package is made available to the app. Instead of bundling the dependent redistributable with your app, update your manifest to declare the dependency on the relevant framework package.

Detailsĭevelop your app in the normal way by referencing export libraries for the required redistributable. Instead, consider custom installation actions. However, don't use this if the Microsoft Store has no framework package available for your dependent redistributable. If your app has been relying on some redistributable software that's available in the Microsoft Store as a framework package, instead of chain-installing the redistributable, you can declare a dependency on the framework package.
