--- Comment #13 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.fo...@utsa.edu> ---
No, we seem to have an implementation problem here with the Windows version
idents [1]. Microsoft deprecated the GetVersionEx() call in current SDKs, but
we've not fully adjusted.
Michael S. tests the generic Windows > Vista with [2][3], and we make the OS
Version query here:
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/source/app/svapp.cxx#1173
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/win/app/salinst.cxx#1012
Unfortunately, IIUC since our builds remain targeted at Windows XP and do not
manifest for later releases, I think the version returns major 6 minor 2.
Seems that to identify Windows details we probably need to pull major and minor
version ID from OSVERSIONINFO [4], similar to what is being done for OpenGL
support.
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/opengl/win/WinDeviceInfo.cxx#185
For the Help -> About dialog if we want to provide more than major minor and
want to include the build version--we could pull from the OSVERSIONINFOEX
struct [5] rather than OSVERSIONINFO.
Also, there are some legacy calls that probably need to be cleaned up:
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/vcl/win/app/salinst.cxx?a=true#415
for example where we've hard coded only through Windows 7--with no handling of
8, 8.1 or 10.
