IsWow64Process not found in KERNEL32.DLL

17 Dec 2005 2:20 #488

Dr. Kruck ( info@gip-aalen.de ) runs FTN95 v4.8, and now 4.9. He reports a problem with his OpenGL programs: on a few PC systems they doen't work because of an error 'entry IsWow64Process not found in KERNEL32.DLL'. He thinks that IsWow64Process() is called in the SALFLIBC.dll. IsWow64Process() is a WinAPI function that requires WinXP or Win2003. However OpenGL program compiled with FTN95 should work on older Windows systems also, shouldn't they? Please let me or Dr. Kruck ( info@gip-aalen.de ) know what to do. Thank you.

Kind regards

I have checked our code and can find no direct call to IsWow64Process. I will make further enquiries but it looks like the cause of the problem must lie elsewhere. Is the problem solved by using earlier versions of FTN95 or OpenGL?

I have checked this for you. FTN95 and salflibc.dll do not make any calls to IsWow64Process. The problem must be caused by a third party DLL that is used by the executable.

The only way that I can investigate this further for you is if you can get Dr Kruck to supply a working version that exhibits the problem. It is sometimes possible to read the binary form of a DLL or its stub library to see if it uses a given function.

With best wishes,

Paul
