LS> Sean Afaiu, there is a problem with some specific version of MSVC that generate code that doesn't work on WinXP/2003 so, you guys are now talking about dropping support to such Windows versions, so this compiler could be used. Question: Does this problem would also affect the compiled client library? Or do you guys also think nobody using Win XP/2003 will needs to connect to Firebird? <g> []s Carlos http://www.firebirdnews.org FireBase - http://www.FireBase.com.br ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
