There is also the issue of Unicode (or lacking) support in Windows 98. Serge did something to get it to work on Windows 98, such as, including unicows.dll ?
Look in the archives of mono-list or mono-devel-list. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Joop Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 1:52 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mono-list] Windows version does not work on Win98 Hi list has anyone tried to install Mono 1.0 Beta 2 on Windows 98? The installer does not fail and nicely tells me that all went well. Then I have to change the bat-file setmonopath.bat to include " in the PATH because Windows 98 does not like the spaces in the PATH-name. But then the real problem arises. When I start mono or mcs a error message pops up and tells me: The PSAPI.DLL file is linked to missing export NTDLL.DLL:_stricmp This looks like the lot is compiled for NT or higher iso Windows 98 (sorry, I still only have Windows 98 and would love to move to Linux but that still program calling it self Progress does not work on Linux as a client (GUI) so I'm stuck) I'd love either to see this solved by seeing a version for Windows 98 or at least that the installer checks what version of Windows I have and then say sorry to me and that this setup is only for WinNT/2000/XP and up(?). Maybe offer to go on anyway, but at least warn, Seeing that .NET by M$ does work on Windows 98, it would be nice if Mono would also work on Windows 98. I understand that there might not be as high a demand for that but a setup that does not check for the right version of Windows is just not very friendly. Thanks for all the work put in! I find Mono a interesting alternative. wkr, Gerke _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
