WS 1.2.16 - ___lc_codepage_func not found in msvcrt.dll

0

if W2k is no longer supported, can someone please update the User Guide section 1.2.2 to indicate that version 1.2.15 is the last available and supported version?

additionally, it would be a GoodThing<tm> if the installer would note this and refuse to continue... this check should be made before one is asked about uninstalling 1.2.15...

1.2.16 does actually install but dies on execution with the following error... The procedure entry point ___k_codepage_func could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll.

( i'm not sure on the number of underscore characters before the k in that error. i have written it with three because i am unable to copy'n'paste the error message :( )

That's a bug that should be filed in Bugzilla.

ok... which bug?

  1. the one about the codepage function missing?

  2. or the installer failing to refuse to install on an unsupported system?

  3. or the one about not being able to copy'n'paste the error? ;)

i'll assume the codepage function bug and see if i can wade into bugzilla and get a report filed...
