[Win32utils-devel] WSAStartup failure

[Daniel Berger]

Hi,

I added the Windows::WSA module to windows-pr recently (it's in the latest
git repo). However, I can't seem to make WSAStartup work. I tried the
following bit of code, only to get "The Windows Sockets version requested is
not supported" on my Vista box.

Is it really not supported on Vista? The docs say Win2k or later. Or is
there another issue?

require 'windows/wsa'
require 'windows/error'
require 'windows/system_info'

include Windows::WSA
include Windows::Error
include Windows::SystemInfo

begin
  version = MAKEWORD(2,2)
  buffer = 0.chr * 532
  err = WSAStartup(version, buffer)

  if err != 0
    puts "Oops: " + get_last_error(err)
  end
ensure
  WSACleanup()
end
