GOAL:
ABL/4GL: How to determine the Windows Version, Build and Service pack under which the current 4GL/ABL session is running?
GOAL:
How to call WIN API GetVersionEx function to obtain extended information about the version of the operating system that is currently running?
GOAL:
What is the Windows Operating System Version, Build and Service Pack of the current 4GL/ABL Session?
GOAL:
How to programmatically know the Windows Operating System Version, Build and Service Pack of the current 4GL/ABL Session?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows
OpenEdge Category: Language (4GL/ABL)
FIX:
A 4GL/ABL application may be running under any of the major versions of Windows and any of the minor subversions and Service Packs. The exact Windows version makes a difference when the specific system information determines which system APIs to call because each Windows version adds new API calls while rendering some older ones obsolete. The following procedure demonstrates how to call WIN API GetVersionEx function to obtain extended information about the version and service pack of the operating system under which the 4GL/ABL is running: /*
dwOSVersionInfoSize
Size of this data structure, in bytes.
Set this member to sizeof(OSVERSIONINFOEX) before calling the GetVersionEx function. dwMajorVersion
Major version number of the operating system. This member can be one of the following values.
Windows 95 4
Windows 98 4
Windows Me 4
Windows NT 3.51 3
Windows NT 4.0 4
Windows 2000 5
Windows XP 5
Windows Server 2003 family 5 dwMinorVersion
Minor version number of the operating system. This member can be one of the following values.
Windows 95 0
Windows 98 10
Windows Me 90
Windows NT 3.51 51
Windows NT 4.0 0
Windows 2000 0
Windows XP 1
Windows Server 2003 family 2 dwBuildNumber
Build number of the operating system.
Windows Me/98/95: The low-order word contains the build number of the operating.
The high-order word contains the major and minor version numbers. dwPlatformId
Operating system platform. This member can be one of the following values.
VER_PLATFORM_WIN32s Win32s on Windows 3.1 0.
VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_WINDOWS Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Me. 1.
VER_PLATFORM_WIN32_NT Windows NT/2000/XP/Server 2003 family 2. szCSDVersion
Pointer to a null-terminated string, such as "Service Pack 3", that indicates the latest Service Pack
installed on the system. If no Service Pack has been installed, the string is empty.
Windows Me/98/95: Pointer to a null-terminated string that indicates additional version information.
For example, " C" indicates Windows 95 OSR2 and " A" indicates Windows 98 Second Edition.wProductType
This 8-bit identifier provides additional information about the system and is used to distinguish Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 2008 R2.
