Currently IOCs will crash if installed on a computer with an outdated Visual Studio redistributable. The IBEX installer needs to install the VC redistributable during deployment.

Acceptance criteria

  • vc_redist.x64.exe installled on a 64 bit install, both vc_redist.x86.exe and ``vc_redist.x64.exe` on a 32bit install

Notes

  • During build vc_redist.x64.exe and vc_redist.x86.exe are copied from the Visual Studio area to the EPICS/crtl directory, so after installing EPICS the ibex deployment tool can pick these up from there so they do not need to be stored separately
  • Ideally system test servers should run the same version of redistributable as we will deploy. As i think admin prompt may happen, it is probably not possible to auto-update them as part of jenkins job

Not going to add release notes as it's in ibex_utils and therefore not deployed on instruments.
