I need to write a little tool for a customer to be run on Windows 98. Since this is a very small project I’d hope that I could avoid having to go native C++ and use C#.
The .net Framework 2.0 download claims to support Windows 98. Are there any caveats or hitches to be aware of when installing or coding?
There are a few features that Win98 won’t support such as form opacity and balloon tooltips. If you use any P/Invoke, you’ll have to make sure to support ANSI versions of functions (use
CharSet.Auto) and you’ll have to check MSDN to make sure that the API functions you’re using are supported on Win98. It will work, but if possible, you should test on Win98 before delivering to the customer.
