W2K version on Windowws 7 and 8/8.1

Post by szymon.nowak »

For several days I test build for Windows 2000, and I think on Windows XP 7 /8/8.1 32 and 64 bit works better and more stable than other versions .

w2k build support also the new OS's.
WIth the w2k 32bit version you have an exe that run on all platforms.

The only drawback is that new functions that didn't existed in w2k/xp are not supported by the compiler.
Yes, it works on all platforms, but some parts are disabled.

Hello Rudi,

would you please be so kind to tell us in 3-10 words which parts are disabled? Are they functional parts or more optimization parts?

Cheers Greg

win7 -> no difference
win8 -> w8hook + uvnckeyboardhelper

Win8 hook is a lot faster then pute blitting
uvnckeyboardhelper is used to be able to execute some special win8 blocked keys.

correction they are working
You can use the addon w8hook ( compiled for win8 in combination with a w2k exe), we do a loadlib manual insite vthe soft.

It's in uvnc2me that the w8hook is embedded in the exe.
In that case the exe need to be compiled with the latest compiler.K
