Przemek,
You will have to recompile core Harbour code with:
set HB_BUILD_UNICODE=no
Then Harbour compiler and final binaries created by Harbour compiler
will work on Win9x.
Sorry but no. Some RTL (gtwvt, hbwin) only work with Windows 2000 or later and crash in Win9x because *force* _WIN32_

Yes, of course.
There is no functionality pulled from Harbour, just changing
default build mode.

Forgive the stupid question, but the only switch I'm worried about it is how
it behaves now. ie, Harbour compiled .exe's run on Win9x -> Windows 7
64bit.
I take it though, that "set HB_BUILD_UNICODE=no" will accomplish this, when
Viktor's plan goes through for the future edition.
Thanks

Both.
Since Harbour core libs will contain references to
Windows UNICODE functions, anything that uses these
core libs won't (by default) run on Win9x.

When you say "won't run on Win9x" do you mean harbour.exe and tools, or do
you mean .EXE's generated with Harbour?

At all. Win9x doesn't support UNICODE.
There is way to solve it, but it's currently
not dev
Ahh I feel kind of stupid. Having reread your original e-mail, it looks
like simply the Harbour Project won't run on Win9x anymore, not the .EXE's
that Harbour makes.

Actually, that part where they won't run in Win9x anymore got me worried.
Do you mean won't run _at all_, or just won't run UNICODE stuff properly.
We have a few people who use Windows 98 who will use your Harbour compiled
.exe files. If you mean they won't run period, then maybe there could be a
Then I'm + in favour! I'm all for UNICODE finally becoming the default for
things world-wide.

No, it's an internal change specific to Windows platform,

Viktor,
Does this mean that all the Extended Ascii chars from the DOS world will
disappear and turn into their latin-1 / utf-8 equivalents?

Yes, most of them can be. But 'time' is a natural, general
purpose data type. NULL on the contrary is a toy for SQL
it can be implemented without touching HVM and we
Ok. Sorry for OT :)

An ITEM can be DATE but be NULL, boolean logic is different.
At least count on it.

We need new HB_ITEM type, separate UNICODE
API calls (mostly ready), we need to switch
internally to use new UNICODE Harbour API
calls, extend existing one to convert to non-UNICODE
for UNICODE items, and
+1 UNICODE mode for window build
What steep for give harbour "full unicode support"?

Hi All,
I'd like to gather opinions on switching default Harbour
Windows builds to UNICODE mode in next major release.
Advantages:
- Runs more efficiently on NT-class OSes since
we're using native API instead of ANSI wrappers,
and the OS-level CP conversion is saved also.
- Harbour
