I can confirm this one now. This little test opens a console window on
7, but not Vista, when compiled with 'gcc -mno-cygwin -mwindows'.
int
main(void)
{
HWINSTA wst = CreateWindowStation (0, 0, WINSTA_ALL_ACCESS, 0);
SetProcessWindowStation(wst);
AllocConsole();
Sleep(3000);
return 0;
}
There seems to have been quite a bit of rearchitecting in this area.
On 7 there's a process called 'conhost.exe' for every console, which I
don't think I've seen on previous Windows versions.
