I have run and bound a computer program for Windows. The bound version runs fine on Windows XP but when I run it on a Windows 98 box I get name too long for open_dll. open_dll is obviously called by win32lib.ew. The code will not work with older versions of win32lib.ew that run on Windows 9x, so I couldn't run it as an exw file.
That error message is generated by euphoria. It uses a buffer of 1040 bytes. I doubt that Win 9X will support path lengths that long (isn't there a limit of 256?). Could you track down the dll that it's failing to openor at least what is being passed to open_dll?
