Hello community, hello Fred,
today I am working on a project with access to WinAPI. I coded a program and compiled it on my home office computer (Win95). Then I run the program in the office (computer with Win2000).
The program calls the debugger, to test some functions of WinAPI. After the program starts, I can not see the source code in the debug window, but the debugger works and I am only "blind"; it is a nice white window. If I start the same program on Win95 it works very well. So, I take the source code from the Win95 to Win2000 and compile it again (only for test), then I compare the binary code of the execute files, and, I can not believe it, found 29 differences.
2 differences are from my arguments, so it is allright. But I see a lot of like this, e. g.:
[00][D7][00]GetCurrentThreadID in Win2000 program
[FF][D7][00]GetCurrentThreadID in Win95 program
There are 25 differences only in [00] on Win2000 to [FF] or [F0] or [CC] or whatever in Win95 program.
What can I do to create full binary compatible programs for each windows plattform which works allright?
Thanks for tips
Bye
Stefan

I also have had problems when testing my code in Windows 2000, but it was not PB, it was Asm. It's not PureBasic's fault, it's Microsoft's. I can understand that some apps built for XP don't work in Windows 95, but what about the contrary? Why do they break forward compatibility this way? (sorry for the fussing, yesterday I spent a lot of time dealing with Windows 2000 'differences')

Where can I find the sources?

How did you compile without source ?
