Using msvcrt vs win32 API

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message 

I've been looking at OS specific file handling routines and doing a little
research. A question occurs to me:

Is there any advantage in using Win32 API directly over using msvcrt.dll
functions? msvcrt contains "standard" C library functions so it looks like it
would be easier to create a cross-platform library.
