How To Write Pc Programs That Don’t Require Runtime Files / Virtual Machine?

VB 6, .NET, Java apps all seem to require runtime files.
Is C++ in Visual Studio 2005 a good way to write windows programs that don’t require anything to be on a user’s computer?
In other words, what language is a program like Trillian / MSN Messenger written in? And do they require any specific runtime files or Virtual Machine (.NET / Java)?

  1. hi
    you know for a portable application you need runtime for java programs for example
    VS2005 can write “standalone” programs that don’t require any other files dll or libraries or frameworks to work with C++ native mode compilation, but VS2005 is specialy made for .Net developement
    if you want to write a real independant program Use C or C++ and a compiler like Devcpp or GCC
    hope this is useful

    C has the quality of needing little run time support ( well, for small apps though )
