Hello all,

Can you tell me at what level the Windows API has been implemented in FPC 2.4.3?

Meaning the 3.1.1 … 3.1.4… etc?

Thanks

Tom

What is the meaning of this ? I googled for this, but cannot find any reference to a 'level' of the windows API ?

The only reference I could find about it was in the GNU w32api files(__W32API_VERSION, __W32API_MAJOR_VERSION, __W32API_MINOR_VERSION)

I couldn't find any meaning of this either, and don't know how to interpret it

While the FPC ones date from gnu or mingw ones (IIRC) somewhere in 1998, they are a separate codebase since.

I think he means the SDK version from which they are translated.

There is no such things. It is a separate codebase, and patches and new translations are added/committed as we go.

Many of the more recent (winunit-base) are based on the first Windows7 SDK.

Some of the older units (Windows) might have places not touched since windows 2000.

Standard procedure: if you find problems, ask and/or add a patch.

As one can see, there are not many winapi bugreports in mantis. This is because they are usually easily fixed.
