Windows 32-bit XP Release #568
Comments
I just saw that you added a new 32-bit Windows build. Thanks -- adding instead of replacing is OK with me. But I am sure that not only the 32-bit version needs one which runs also on XP-level OSes, but also the 64 bit version. As we established in the other thread, the issue is not 32 bit vs. 64 bit, but Windows XP vs. later Windows versions. OK, I could not test that because I don't have a 64 bit Windows XP or Server 2003. I was intitially confused because I had only XP on 32 bit and Win7 on 64 bit, so this led me to the wrong assumption that the issue was 32 bit vs. 64 bit, but it turned out to be Windows XP and Server 2003 vs. Windows 7 and later (I don't know about Vista). |
@LWillms glad you found the new Now I am unsure if we need a As I mentioned in the other thread, I think the Tidy The reverse, a There are some But Tidy is a very simple I guess we will have to wait-and-see... thanks... |

Windows XP is officially out of support, so I'd have no problem dropping Tidy support for it. It's highly likely that Tidy doesn't work on Mac System 7 anymore, either! On the other hand, @geoffmcl, you were pretty vociferous about continuing Win XP support last time, I seem to recall. |
With release 5.6 out-the-door, and have included a 32-bit version built with MSVC10, hope this can be closed... If not please feel free to re-open, or perhaps file a new issue... thanks... |
As covered in #566 the current Windows release zips are incompatible, read will not run, in Windows

It seems to effect only builds by MSVC14 2015, and maybe later... all the earlier releases built with trusty MSVC10 2010 seem ok...
