Can I use any smart card to run Sim Toolkit applications? - applet

I have an ordinary Simcard. I want to use SimToolkit to write applets using active commands. when I use nothing special my applet is installed on my sim, but when I set specific events, this applet cannot be installed anymore.
Is there anything I have to install on my Simcard before installing my own applet? Is there any prerequired applet or other materials I have to install on my Simcard to run active command applets?

Application setup

Is it possible to install third-party application alongside my application on my own application setup?
Let's say I were to sell some of my application, and in order to run my application on client's computer I would also need to run PostgreSQL. Is it possible to install it beside my application in my setup?
I am such rookie on that subject and don't really know where to start.
(I should mention that I am particularly interested on deploying Windows applications)
All commercial software will feature ways to help you achieve this as a built-in feature. Essentially you wrap it all in a setup.exe launcher / bootstrapper / downloader and this executable will install your prerequisite components before your own install is run, if they need to be installed.
Please see these answers for some further information on deployment tools and their features:

What installation product to use? InstallShield, WiX, Wise, Advanced Installer, etc
The open source WiX toolkit features a component called Burn to create such setup.exe launchers / downloaders / bootstrappers. Writing WiX XML markup code is necessary to use this Burn feature. Commercial tools Installshield and Advanced Installer provide GUI to build such setup.exe files.

Include drivers with application installation

I have created an application in C# that relies on a specific driver (a custom virtual hid driver based on VMulti).
Currently, I have everything working and I want to combine both the application and driver into one installation package. As of right now, my application part has a .exe file and a .dll file. My driver has an .inf and .sys file, hidkmdf.sys, and WdfCoInstaller01009.dll (this dll is from the WDK). I am not able to install the driver through the traditional method of right-clicking the inf and clicking install. Instead, I use devcon to install it (command is "install inffile.inf hardwareid")
I tried using InstallShield LE, but I am only able to install the application, not the driver. After doing some searching, I found people using DIFxAPP to create the installation framework for drivers, however, I am not sure if this can be integrated into InstallShield so that the driver is installed during the application installation process.
So my main question is: What is the best and simplest method for combining application and driver installation into one package (meaning the setup.exe will install both the driver and the application)?
I am very new to driver development and application deployment, so any suggestions are welcome.
Thank You
EDIT: It is preferred that the solution does not require any paid tools.
Acctually, exists a many ways to implement this which depends on your Windows Installers skills.
You didn't specify target OSes for your application, that's why can I give you some ways:
PnpUtil.exe internal Windows 7 utility (only for Windows 7)
DPInst.exe included to WDK
DifXAPI merge module.
You can install drivers with help of all these utils via Custom Actions.
NOTE: That your driver SHOULD BE signed, otherwise you will receive error during silent installation.

Visual C++ Runtime on Network Location

I have a MATLAB executable that I am trying to deploy within my company, but I don't want people to need to install a bunch of stuff. The executable is saved to a network location and I want them to just run it. I have MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) set up on the network, but now I'm running into issues with Visual C++ Runtime (VC++R) saying the application isn't installed properly. Is there a way to install VC++R to a network location. (People don't have permissions to install things, which is why I want to get away from having to install MCR and VC++R.)
From my experience with deployed MATLAB using MCR through r2013a, MCR must always be installed locally.
This does present an issue with thin clients.
A workaround would be to deploy the executable as a remote-ly accessible service, either a Windows Service or other endpoint. This was my solution

Deploying linux CUDA app

I've compiled a cu program on my laptop, using NVIDIA CUDA 5 toolkit. A very basic interface, using only terminal output. Then I went on to test how it runs on my desktop PC (both have Ubuntu 12.04 LTS installed).
On the desktop PC I get this error message:
error while loading shared libraries: libcudart.so.5.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Ok, I get it, some libs are not installed. But do I really need to install CUDA toolkit on every PC where I'd want my compiled code to run?
To deploy a CUDA runtime API application on linux you only need to do two things:
Make sure that the machine in question has a CUDA compatible card and a minimum driver version which matches the CUDA Toolkit you used to build the application (you can find information regarding both of these in the release notes of the toolkit)
Distribute the runtime library (so cudart.so) that you built the application against with the executable. If you used any other libraries from the toolkit (like CUBLAS, CUFFT, CUSPARSE, etc) you need to inlcude those too. The CUDA runtime library is versioned and you have to have the libraries which match the toolkit you are building with. You may need to use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to ensure that the correct versions of the libraries are found by the link loader. Often a simple shell script which acts the canonical application, settings LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and running the built executable is the best way to do this.
If you get those two things right, it should just work.

How to deploy application with QT5

So I have made GUI frontend for latex with QT5 using QT creator. The application works fine, but I'm unable to deploy it. The deploy option in build is grayed out. I have also tried following this guide but I can't even configure my QT to use static linking. I was able to configure the source, but when I try to run mingw32-make sub-src, it says nothing to do here.
I downloaded QT from here using the link Qt 5.0.1 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.7, 823 MB). I have also downloaded microsoft visual studio express for Windows 8 to get tools required for building c++.
I also tried to install mingw32 manually. I have also installed Strawberry perl, because one guide told me to do that, but that did nothing.
I managed to fix this problem. There was one .dll. Reason why I didn't find it earlier was that my application did not need it by itself, but one of libraries I used was dependaple from it. The missing .dll was icuuc49.dll.
