[Bug 611050] Re: DC 0.77 does not work on Windows 2000

 

If it is not supported, then take a moment and update
http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/download.html which CLEARLY says that
dcplusplus runs on Windows 2000 machines.

On the other hand, you might want to have a look at
http://pressf1.pcworld.co.nz/archive/index.php/t-50226.html and just add
a couple of lines that will keep Windows 2000 supported.


the procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in the dynamic link library WS2_32.DLL

Bug description:
On launching dcplusplus ver 0.77 on a windows 2000 machine, a window with the following error message shows: "the procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in the dynamic link library WS2_32.DLL"

>From some search on this error message, it seems that there is some small change from Windows 2000 to XP: it's just a matter of some small modification in the source files and a rebuild of the code to restore support for Windows 2000.
