it is fine as long as DLLs are newer than 3 Dec, as I don't rebuild whole thing.

[roytam1]

Notice: upstream pushed a big ICU update, and I may need to further look at the changes to see if any new changes are needed for our old target platforms, currently no ETA for upcoming new builds.

aaah, no clue whats wrong here:

 0:26.17 c:/devel/myUXP/intl/icu/source/i18n/messageformat2_function_registry.cpp(862): error C2280: 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural(const icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural &)': attempting to reference a deleted function
 0:26.17 c:\devel\myuxp\intl\icu\source\i18n\messageformat2_function_registry_internal.h(248): note: compiler has generated 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural' here
 0:26.17 c:\devel\myuxp\intl\icu\source\i18n\messageformat2_function_registry_internal.h(248): note: 'icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural::Plural(const icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Plural &)': function was implicitly deleted because a data member invokes a deleted or inaccessible function 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>::LocalPointer(const icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number> &)'
 0:26.17 c:\devel\myUXP\intl\icu\source\common\unicode/localpointer.h(343): note: 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>::LocalPointer(const icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number> &)': function was implicitly deleted because 'icu_78::LocalPointer<icu_78::message2::StandardFunctions::Number>' has a user-defined move constructor

and v141_xp seems to be not good enough to build ICU 78.

EDIT: got it fixed, -std:c++17 is needed by new ICU, so vc2015 branch will no longer be buildable as ICU can't be skipped.

EDIT2: the above error is solved by adding a copy-ctr line in localpointer.h, all changes are in https://github.com/roytam1/UXP/commit/9f6727874f81bf98ef3f54f046d14c6c5cfdc20f , and hope I did it right. I think I can make a special release tomorrow!

And now I have a newer-than-mypal ICU and feodor2 may have a look?

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 v16.7 Redistributable v14.27.29114 XP

 

Article 11/15/2024

Windows XP Support: Microsoft ended support for Windows XP on April 8, 2014. Current versions of the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015-2022 only support Windows 7, 8.1, 10, and 11. The last version of the Visual C++ Redistributable that works on Windows XP shipped in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7 (file versions starting with 14.27). The Redistributable is available in the my.visualstudio.com Downloads section as Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2019 (version 16.7).

Configuring Programs for Windows XP

The toolset supplied in Visual Studio 2019 and later doesn't include support for creating code for Windows XP. Support for Windows XP development is available by using the Visual Studio 2017 v141_xp toolset. You can install the v141_xp toolset as an individual component option in the Visual Studio 2019 Installer.

Hi roytam. Merry Christmas to you and everyone here. 

 

Installed this latest version of Basilisk but it didn't start. Had to go back to the previous one.

I'm using SP2... maybe that's the issue?  

[Leokids123]

Speaking about forks,Yansu has been made,and it's a fork of the last version for non-SSE2 PCs,Firefox 48.

 

This might be irrelevant due to 45esr getting forked and Serpent IA32 exists but 48.0 seems forgotten by developers...even those who forks...

 

Maybe @roytam1 can fork it and add his own changes to it.

yes it is always an issue because GetLogicalProcessorInformation is missing in XP SP2.

you may either update kernel32.dll with that API available(i.e. WindowsXP-KB936235-v2): http://kmeleonbrowser.org/forum/read.php?19,143253,page=10

or patching your target application with kernelxp and patchk32. https://github.com/roytam1/rtoss/tree/master/kernelxp

my UXP IA32 builds works on any processor that has CMOVcc, which Pentium II and Cyrix 6x86MX/MII and later will work.

and in the past I did tried to make firefox compiling on VC2013 as far as possible: https://github.com/roytam1/fx-vc2013

and NM27 also has many changes in fx48 and even later versions (thanks arctic-fox forks for the job).

but too many efforts put in and no much outcome achieved so I focused on UXP again.
