Re: [sqlite] SQLite and Windows 95
Hi. http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1813730.html I compiled SQLite 3.7.17 and 3.8.0.2 for Windows 95 before. If you want to know the reason why it would not work on Win95, see the following article. http://blog.livedoor.jp/blackwingcat/archives/1804729.html -- View this message in context: http://sqlite.1065341.n5.nabble.com/SQLite-and-Windows-95-tp5271p77748.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
Re: [sqlite] SQLite and Windows 95
Hi, Thanks to you to help me with this problem. As I do not require special features (only insert/select/order by/delete), I think it is maybe easier to use an old version of SQLite. I will try with 3.6.10 as said by Max. If it does not work I will try an older one.

No, not only will that not work, but the license does not allow you to copy random DLLs from Windows around. I'd try something like the Legacy Extender (http://www.legacyextender.com/). It claims to contain a DLL with implementations of many Windows NT functions, including this one. ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users

The kernel /is/ pretty-much the version of Windows you're running. Everything else in Windows talks to the kernel and replacing the kernel for a Win95 computer will require you to replace many other files on it too. I don't think it's possible to do the thing you want on a Win95 computer. Simon. ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users

No. Functions in kernel32.dll just turn around and make system calls into the actual OS kernel. Those system calls that exist in XP kernel but not in Win95 one won't magically materialize when you copy a user-mode DLL. -- Igor Tandetnik ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
Re: [sqlite] SQLite and Windows 95
Hi Max and Richard, Thanks for reply. To Max: I agree, I do not have unicode support. The call to GetFileAttributesExW is in "if( isNT() )", which returns FALSE under Win95, so I removed the call to GetFileAttributesExW (It is not a problem if I considered that the software is build for a specific plateforme, and in the future i can make a definition "SQLITE_WIN95" in the code, like done for WinCE. The problem is still there, but with "InterlockedCompareExchange", and it seems I need it. I wonder about something : those functions are in kernel32.dll on a XP computer. Is it possible (I never do that before), to take the file "kernel32.dll" on my XP computer, to put it on the Win95 computer in the directory of my SQLite application, and to call the functions I need for SQLite in this DLL instead of the kernel32.dll of Win95 ? Maybe with a call to LoadLibrary and with some calls to GetProcAddress ? On a other hand, I looked for older versions of SQLite, but I'm confused : do I need to use source trunk repository on sqlite.org or is there somewhere archive of older versions (if possible amalgamation version) ? Thanks a lot for your help. Joel ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users

It used to work on Win95. But we do not have (and have not had for years) the ability to test on Win95. It's not like we can go out to BestBuy and pick up a new Win95 machine for testing, you know Hence breakage accumulates. (A similar problem exists for OS/2.) Why don't you go back through some historical versions of SQLite and figure out when it stopped working. Maybe you can use that version. Or maybe you can take the "os_win.c" source file from that version (which is the only file that should contain any win95-specific code) and port it to the latest version of SQLite on the trunk? -- D.

Re: [sqlite] SQLite and Windows 95
Hi Kees, Thanks for your reply. I'm surprised, in the source code of SQLite (file sqlite3.c), there are a lot of references to Win95/98/Me. If I want to use SQLite under Win95, which (stable) version can I use ? I do not need so special functions, just making 3 tables and insert/select/delete data in those tables. Or if it is not possible to use SQLite, which simple database can I use on Win95 ? If I do not found solution, I will have to do the jobs around txt files :-( I'm developping for very specific hardware, and those developments are an upgrade of an existing system, I can't upgrade the operating system to a newer windows version.

Windows 95 support milestones: General Availability Date 1995-08-15 Mainstream Support End Date 2000-12-31 Extended Support End Date 2001-12-31 The first Alpha version of SQLite3 is dated 2004-06-18 http://www.sqlite.org/oldnews.html#2004__un_18 In other words, it's not very surprising Windows95 is not supported any more. Perhaps you can run a newer Windows version, like Windows CE or Windows Mobile? Alternatively, you can build a VFS module which targets Windows95 and avoids newer Windows API calls. -- ( Kees Nuyt ) c[_] ___ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
[sqlite] SQLite and Windows 95
Hi, I'm working with SQLite since few months. I'm developping an application with Visual C++ 6.0 and with SQLite 3.7.2. This application works fine on my computer, which is running Windows XP. But the final hardware is under Windows 95, and the application does not run on it. I tried : - Using SQLite DLL, with the function LoadLibrary, but LoadLibrary call fails on Windows 95 (returns NULL). - Using the SQLite sources in my project, but the application do not start any more on Windows 95 : error message is that the application is linked to kernel32.dll and that function GetFileAttributesExW is not found. If I remove this function in the SQLite code, the same problem appears with another function. So I'm looking for help to run my application on Windows 95. Maybe I simply forget a definition to do before building ? I found some information on the Internet, but nothing very easy to understand and use. Is there somewhere a basic application which runs under Windows 95 ? Of course I'm particularly interrested by Visual C++ 6.0 examples, but any other examples will be apreciated.
