Yet another version question

[Bradley Plett]

We have two development machines which, to the best of my knowledge,
were set up identically. However, they are clearly NOT identical. We
have a project that, if we compile it on one machine, everyone else
can run it, but if we compile it on the other machine, everyone else
gets an exception. We're having some trouble figuring out what's
different. Is there some way, looking at the binary files (i.e. the
exe and associated dll's), that I can tell what's different between
the two machines?

Thanks!
Brad.

Bradley,

Is there some way, looking at the binary files (i.e. the
exe and associated dll's), that I can tell what's different between
the two machines?

I would start by running ILDASM on both executables to get the IL
Assembler code as text, then use a diff tool on these source files to
detect any differences.

Thanks a lot! This did, eventually, get me to notice that the two
machines had different versions of the Oracle client installed.
Problem solved.

Brad.
