MSXML 4 and Side-by-Side

  • Article

So, if you follow the 'Ask the Performance Team' blog, you've probably seen the intro and troubleshooting tips for Side-by-side.

There is a lot more information about this on MSDN, which is very useful (I should probably say necessary) to do correct redistributions of MSXML 4 and make sure your application works as you intend it to. MSXML 4, as the documentation mentions, has side-by-side support.

The preferred way to go, of course, is to simply use MSXML 6, which has a number of improvements and can be serviced directly as an operating system component on Windows Vista and above.
