How can we know whether a file is shared or not?
Installshield requires to specify this.
A shared files is a DLL/OCX (dependancy) file that may be used by another application and therfore may not be removed during a un-install. A non-shared file is a DLL/OCX that is for your application only. If you did not create the DLL/OCX then you should used shared. The other reason for this is because during install Installshield needs to know if the DLL/OCX may be locked by another application.
msvbvm60.dll is shared
yourapp.dll is not shared
