Coming soon (probably): Windows SDK Version header

  • Статья

I'm excited to announce that in the RTM Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 release, we'll be considering adding a new file to the SDK that many users have been asking for: a way to determine which build of the SDK is installed on disk, and a way to determine what the highest available versions are on the user's disk.

This has long been an ask both from the SDK MVPs and from the Visual C++ team, and the intent is that this file work as essentially a reference that you can leverage for more efficient programming. Rather than have to track down the highest OS version that SDK content is coded against, this macro will provide you that data right at your fingertips.

This is being considered as a DCR against that release, but due to the low cost of adding this file to the SDK release, I have every expectation that the DCR will pass.

Please, if you get a chance and you're interested in this functionality, post a comment with your opinions on it. Thanks!

/* _WINSDOWSSDK version constants Note: In the below listing, the first two digits represent the operating system major version number. For Windows Vista, this is 06. The next two digits, 01, represent the operating system minor version number. For Windows Server 2008, this is 01. The remaining characters, 40D9, represent the build number of the operating system. The hexadecimal value 40D9 is 16601 decimal. The revision is the revision of the Windows SDK build and is an arbitrary number; in this case 01. That number will revise as each preliminary or RTM version of this SDK is released. */
