Firebird 2.0.1 fails to start on Windows 95 [CORE1282] #1703
Comments
Commented by: Sean Leyne (seanleyne) Unless this is a very simple problem to resolve, I think that Win95 support should be dropped for v2.x+ -- just as v2.x does not support some older versions of glib/linux kernel. |
Commented by: @AlexPeshkoff A few years ago I had to hack class Mutex to make it compatible with windows 95. Certainly, some trick may be also possible for interlocked operations, but exacty like with a Mutex a price will be slightly less efficient (on other versions of windows) code. |
Commented by: @dyemanov I think we should publicly declare that Win95 is no longer supported and forget about such issues. |
Commented by: Reimund Renner (rei) I didn't know that Win95 is not supported anymore. |
Commented by: Martin Binder (binderm) I tried to use isql (FB2 SuperServer install) on Win 95b (real hardware) |
Commented by: @pcisar Starting from 2.0.0 release, Win95 is no longer supported. |

When starting Firebird with FBGuard.exe on Windows 95 the following error is displayed and firebird can not be used:
"The file FBCLIENT.DLL is linked with the missing Export-KERNEL32.DLL:InterlockedExchangeAdd." (translated from german)
Windows 95 does not support the function InterlockedExchangeAdd.
