I'd like to suggest the following Q&A for the FAQ: --//--
Q: Why do some 32-bit MinGW-w64 applications fail with '... _vswprintf could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll' on Windows XP SP1? A: For C++, MinGW-w64 implements 'vswprintf (wchar_t *__stream, const wchar_t *__format, __builtin_va_list __local_argv)' as a call to '_vswprintf'. Older versions of msvcrt.dll, like the version in XP SP1, do not include '_vswprintf'. A workaround for this is to compile any C++ libraries and applications that use 'vswprintf' (with the preceding signature) with -D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO. For example, to build the wxWidgets library for applications to be deployed on XP SP1, build wxWidgets with the following command line: > mingw32-make -f makefile.gcc CPPFLAGS="-D__USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO" --//-- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
