CVI 2013 XP target

[R1M]

Hello,

How can I compile an application (a .DLL in fact) for a 32-bits XP OS target?

We used for years CVI8.0 for this purpose and I'd prefer to keep only 1 IDE for all our targets, XP or W7.
What is in CVI 2013 the option to be used in order to make an application operating on 32-bit XP OS?

Regards

According to CVI Life Cycle Policy, 2013 is the last release that supports Windows XP. Given this, there isn't a special option to identifies executables specifically targeted to that OS.

For this reason, I suppose that simply setting DLL in Build >> Target type and Release in Build >> Configuration menu items does the trick. After you make these assignments, you can also tailor the build process via the Build >> Target settings... dialog.

See also Creating and Distributing Release Executables and DLLs in the Programmer Reference chapter of the help.

Do you mean that when compiling a DLL with CVI 2013, we can use it on both XP and W7 OS without change?

Yes, it should be.
