Make a 32bit compiler windowed for w95 98 me

[exagonx]

Hello Guys

Im working on FreeBASIC Compiler Source for add the windows.bi in that way if I use "-WINDOWS" option FBC appair in a window and ask for a source. in that way I can compile window app under Old version of windows, at moment I have a Virtual Machine with Windows 2k where I compile and after I copy in a old machine with Win98, that work but when close the program that make me a error message, Maybe I have to put some Istruction more for close the program Im stil working on it.

Sorry for waste time and ave a nice day.

Yes you are right but Im talking about the Compiler.

FBC ( The compiler ) can be run only from command line and on windows 95, 98, but unfortunately I don't know why but compiling any software that includes "windows.bi" on windows 9x causes kernel32.dll errors, I think that I will continue to compile the programs on windows 2k and then run them in the mini system that due to the low memory ( 512 MB HDD ) I can only create software based on windows 98 or windows NT4

my point was that you can compile your FB programs using fbide, there's no need for the cmd

its make the same error like I compile from command line.

Message error popup window: Error during running program.
the LIBWINPTHREAD-1.DLL file is linked to the missing export KERNEL32.DLL:AddVectoredExceptionHandler.

get a version of FB built with the MinGW-w64 toolchains, either with gcc-5.2.0 or gcc-8.1.0, it's available at the bottom of the news for FB version 1.10.0

I found gcc-11 for win98 at https://github.com/fsb4000/gcc-for-Windows98 and it works!
now you can use the gcc backend on win98
