Hello, I use libwww v4 as static lib and vc++2.2 and generate a WIN32 binary. I tested the stuff on a 3.11 + WIN32s platform. Here are first remarks. 1°)I had to set the NO_TIMEZONE flag on. Otherwise, the lib (htwwwstr.c) expects some dynamic links which are NOT defined in the WIN32s version of mscvrt20.dll (which are the microsoft runtime routines): -daylight -timezone wherehas it is well-defined in the mscvrt20.dll version for NT & 95... I do not know how far this could be solved with the mscvrt40.dll, but I guess that such calls should be avoided to remain compatible with WIN32s. 2°)Declaring the protocols as preemptive seem not to be taken into account on such platform, so that you should block interaction manually. 3°)Another problem that I encountered is that the "file:" protocol truncates data when trying to load binary files from local storage. This also occurs on WIN95. |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | Laurent Vinesse | JOUVE | | Ingenieur logiciel / Software engineer | 12, rue des landelles | | Telephone/Phone : (+33) 99 86 98 12 | Immeuble Hercule II | | Fax : (+33) 99 86 98 01 | 35510 Cesson-Sevigne | | E-mail : lvinesse@jouve.fr | FRANCE | |-----------------------------------------------------------------|
