statically linking VIX libraries

I compiled my code to use the VIX wrapper, which dynamically loads the proper VIX libraries. However this requires that VIX to be installed manually on every machine we run on.

The documentation gives an example of statically linking with the VIX libraries for Workstation. But we need to support all vmware products. Can you statically link to all of the various versions of the VIX libraries, or is this going to cause a conflict?

if not, are we allowed to redist all of the required VIX libraries with our app? Or is this going to violate some terms in the EULA? If allowed,what would be the best way to do this, bundle the VIX SDK with our app and silently install it?
