Feature #20563
openDrop support for old Windows
Description
This is the table of APIs that we are calling dynamically, and the available Windows versions.
DLL | API | Client | Server |
---|---|---|---|
kernel32 | CreateSymbolicLinkW | Vista | 2008 |
kernel32 | GetFileInformationByHandleEx | Vista | 2008 |
kernel32 | GetFinalPathNameByHandleW | Vista | 2008 |
kernel32 | SetFileInformationByHandle | Vista | 2008 |
shell32 | SHGetPathFromIDListEx | Vista | 2008 |
ws2_32 | inet_ntop | Vista | 2008 |
ws2_32 | inet_pton | Vista | 2008 |
kernel32 | GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime | 8 | 2012 |
kernel32 | SetThreadDescription | 10 | 2016 |
However, already random.c directly uses BCryptGenRandom
that is available since Windows Vista/Server 2008.
So I propose explicitly dropping support for Windows older than Vista/2008.
