Re: [general]Snapshot cannot work on Win2K
Hi, it looks like your friend needs to install Microsoft Platform SDK on his
PC .
Another solution is to download and update version of dbghelp library from
msdn site.
I didn't check the second solution.
If you don't not succeed for some reason, simply modify
nt_exception_filter.cpp file excluding lines:
#include <dbghelp.h>,
#pragma comment(linker, "/defaultlib:dbghelp.lib"),
print_callstack function. It will disable call stack printing when crash
happens.
Aleksey.

Re: [general]Snapshot cannot work on Win2K
Posted by Aleksey Ignatenko <al...@gmail.com>.
Hi, I have no Win2K to check the issue, but I checked that dbghelp works
fine on WinXP and Windows Server 2003.
I see trivial solution here, we can simply disable dbghelp usage for systems
older than WinXp. It could be done by _WIN32_WINNT macros:
_WIN32_WINNT>=0x0501 means WinXP and Windows Server 2003 server only.
I also want to note that callstack print is caused by some crash in VM
handled with crash_handler.

I think it's important that on crashes, we get this info...

I think we need to find out whatever is requiring dbghelp and fix that.
I'm really hoping we don't need a separate snapshot for Win2k

Why is it needed? Clearly something is wrong w/ the binary snapshot,
which is supposed to be a release build...

I vaguely remember that Microsoft license allows to include dbghelp.dll
to binary distributions. Below is a quote from EULA (end user license agreement).
May be we could put dbghelp.dll to binary snapshots?

I've tried to update dbghelp yesterday, but it didn't work, will try
after installing Platform SDK soon. Thank you very much, Aleksey.
