Title: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Arnold on February 18, 2018, 02:46:06 AM
Hi Charles,

as Oxygen is able to create 64-bit executable code, it seems that for the data types, there are some rules to follow. I wondered when it makes sense to dispense with the int type and prefer to use sys, therefore I took a look at Windows Dev Center:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa383751(v=vs.85).aspx
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/kernel/the-new-data-types

and I am quite sure that I did not understand everything. But would it be safe to treat all handles (starting with H...) and all kind of pointers to treat as sys? I am also not sure about long, longlong, long32, long64 etc.

How does Oxygen treat GetWindowLong, SetWindowLong in 64-bit Windows? Is there a need for using GetWindowLongPtr, SetWindowLongPtr?

Hi Roland,

I would use Get/SetWindowLongPtr, since they are compatible with 32/64 bit values on 32/64 bit platforms.

When passing 32bit values to functions expecting 64bit values:

int is sign extended to sys
dword is zero extended to sys

But when passing variables byref, the types should match.

Hi Charles,

it seems that using Get/SetWindowLong and Get/SetWindowLongPtr is a little bit tricky. I learned these functions are used to set and get e.g. certain window styles (GWL_STYLE, GWL_EXSTYLE), for subclassing (GWL_WNDPOC), or as a pointer to data with a given window (GWL_USERDATA). The GWLP_ parameters seem to have the same values.

Set/GetWindowLongPtr can only be used for 64-bit compiling, using these functions for 32-bit will fail. Since some time I have been looking for a simple solution which covers this case. In examples\WinGui\ChildWin.o2bas I tried this:

Code: [Select]
...
! GetWindowLongPtr lib "user32.dll" alias "GetWindowLongPtrA" (sys hWnd, sys nIndex) as sys
'% Win_64

  '-------------------------------------------------------------
  function EnumChildProc(sys hwndChild, lParam) as bool callback
  '=============================================================
  {
    RECT * rcParent;
    sys i, idChild;
    sys v,w,info
 
    // Retrieve the child-window identifier. Use it to set the
    // position of the child window.
    info=GWL_ID
#ifdef Win_64
    idChild = GetWindowLongPtr(hwndChild, info)
#else
    idChild = GetWindowLong(hwndChild, info)
#endif
...

I also tried this way:

Code: [Select]
...
! GetWindowLongPtrA lib "user32.dll" alias "GetWindowLongPtrA" (sys hWnd, sys nIndex) as sys
'% Win_64

function GetWindowLongPtr(sys h, sys i) as sys
#ifdef Win_64
    return GetWindowLongPtrA(h,i)
#else
    return GetWindowLong(h,i)
#endif
end function
 
  '-------------------------------------------------------------
  function EnumChildProc(sys hwndChild, lParam) as bool callback
  '=============================================================
  {
    RECT * rcParent;
    sys i, idChild;
    sys v,w,info
 
    // Retrieve the child-window identifier. Use it to set the
    // position of the child window.
    info=GWL_ID
    idChild = GetWindowLongPtr(hwndChild, info)
...

Both of my solutions are not really satisfying. The first one needs a workaround for every Get/SetWindowLong/Ptr. In the second case I need to define Win_64 before the function GetWindowLongPtr. Defining Win_64 after the function does not work. Perhaps with the new macro system there is a better way? Two other examples which use GetWindowLong / SetWindowlong are \tools\FindEd.o2bas and \examples\WinDynDialogs\FullScreen.o2bas.

I suspect for really 64-bit compliant compiling Get/SetWindowLongPtr should be considered. And perhaps these functions should also be added to minwin.inc

Hi Roland,

Inserted into the user32.dll section of minwin.inc:

Code: [Select]
  #ifdef mode64bit
  ! GetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongPtrA"          '2
  ! SetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongPtrA"          '3
  #else
  ! GetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongA"             '2
  ! SetWindowLongPtr "SetWindowLongA"             '3
  #endif


my test:
Code: [Select]
extern lib "user32.dll"
...
#ifdef mode64bit
  ! GetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongPtrA"
#else
  ! GetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongA"
#endif
...
end extern

print @GetWindowLongPtr

Are there any other incompatible functions you know of?

Hi Charles,

the feature to use mode64bit is brilliant. I made some tests with Oxygen in progress, and running in JIT mode, compiling to 32-bit and 64-bit worked without problems.

The only difference I am aware of is the different use of cdecl for some libraries like msvcrt.dll or iup.dll. If I understood MSDN correctly then in 64-bit mode the cdecl modifier is ignored. I assume I could #undef cdecl in the beginning of a program for 64-bit compiling?

But to be honest at the moment I am quite happy to run 32-bit applications. I have progressed much further with my studies than I had dreamed.

It's soft-coded. RTL32 and RTL64 have equates mode32bit and mode64bit.

Perhaps we should also have a W version of minwin for the unicode apis: modeWideChar
Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Arnold on April 04, 2018, 11:14:33 PM
Hi Charles,

exploring the WinApi functions I found that for Win64 there is also a SetClassLongPtr / GetClassLongPtr function which in 32-bit will be used as SetClassLong / GetClassLong. Set/GetClassLong is not declared in minwin.inc, but it is in user.inc.

I have not yet fully understood the connection between user.inc and minwin.inc. In minwin.inc you distinguish between 32/64-bit with Set/GetWindowLong/Ptr but not in user.inc. In user.inc there is also no Set/GetWindowLongPtr function. Is this done internally?

Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Charles Pegge on April 05, 2018, 05:23:54 AM
Hi Roland,

My solution is to place these macro definitions in WinData.inc
Code: [Select]
  #ifndef mode64bit
    def GetClassLongPtr   GetClassLong
    def SetClassLongPtr   SetClassLong
    def GetWindowLongPtr  GetWindowLong
    def SetWindowLongPtr  SetWindowLong
    def GetClassLongPtrW  GetClassLongW
    def SetClassLongPtrW  SetClassLongW
    def GetWindowLongPtrW GetWindowLongW
    def SetWindowLongPtrW SetWindowLongW
  #endif

Then change this user section in MinWin.inc
Code: [Select]
  #ifdef mode64bit
  ! GetWindowLongPtr "GetWindowLongPtrA"          '2
  ! SetWindowLongPtr "SetWindowLongPtrA"          '3
  #endif

Then add this to User.inc
Code: [Select]
#ifdef mode64bit
  ! GetClassLongPtr   "GetClassLongPtrA"
  ! SetClassLongPtr   "SetClassLongPtrA"
  ! GetWindowLongPtr  "GetWindowLongPtrA"
  ! SetWindowLongPtr  "SetWindowLongPtrA"
  ! GetClassLongPtrW
  ! SetClassLongPtrW
  ! GetWindowLongPtrW
  ! SetWindowLongPtrW
#endif

If this is satisfactory, I'll include these changes  in the next update.

Hi Charles,

I replaced the modified include files and everything looks very good. Until now I had no problems.

This is a small example using SetClassLongPtr and SetWindowLongPtr (Double-clicks and Opacity):

Code: OxygenBasic
  1. 'SetClassLongPtr / SetWindowLongPtr
  2.  
  3. $ filename "window_click2.exe"

  8. uses WinUtil
  9.  
  10. % GCL_STYLE = -26
  11.  
  12.  
  13. MainWindow 310,250,WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW
  14.  
  15.  
  16. function WndProc(sys hwnd, Msg, wParam, lParam) as sys callback
  17.  
  18.     select Msg
  19.    
  20.         case WM_CREATE
  21.             'Replaces the window-class style bits    
  22.            SetClassLongPtr(hwnd, GCL_STYLE, GetClassLongPtr(hwnd, GCL_STYLE) | CS_DBLCLKS)
  23.  
  24.             'Change attributes of window
  25.            SetWindowLongPtr(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE, GetWindowLongPtr(hwnd, GWL_EXSTYLE) | WS_EX_LAYERED)
  26.             int WindowOpacity = (255 * 70) / 100
  27.             SetLayeredWindowAttributes(hwnd, 0, WindowOpacity, LWA_ALPHA)
  28.  
  29.  
  30.         case WM_LBUTTONDOWN
  31.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Left Button Down")
  32.         case WM_LBUTTONUP
  33.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Left Button Up")
  34.         case WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK
  35.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Left Button Double Click")
  36.  
  37.         case WM_RBUTTONDOWN
  38.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Right Button Down")
  39.         case WM_RBUTTONUP
  40.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Right Button Up")
  41.         case WM_RBUTTONDBLCLK
  42.             SetWindowText(hwnd, "Right Button Double Click")

  49.        
  50.         case else
  51.             return DefWindowProc(hwnd, Msg, wParam, lParam)
  52.            
  53.     end select
  54.    
  55.     return 0
  56. end function
  57.

Hi Charles,

the contribution of Chris about existing files caused me to play with the function GetFileAttributes. The following code works fine with 32 bit, but fails if compiled to 64-bit executable, no matter what I try. I searched in internet but I did not find sufficient information until now.

Is GetFileAttributes not used any more this way with Win64 or must 0xffffffff treated differently? These negative constants start to worry me.

Roland

Code: [Select]
$ filename "ExistFilePath.exe"

'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

uses corewin
uses console

% INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES = (dword -1) '0xffffffff

function existFP(string szFilePath) as bool
  'path, filename?
  dword attrib = GetFileAttributes(szFilePath)
printl attrib
  'if attrib != 0xffffffff then return true
  if attrib != INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES then return true
  return false
end function

sub checkFP(string fp)
  if existFP(fp) then
    printl fp " exists"
  else
    printl fp " does not exist" 
  end if
end sub

'check folder
checkFP("c:\temp")
checkFP("C:\temp\Get Start\Tgh")
checkFP("c:\oxygenbasic\examples")
checkFP("c:\program files")

'check file
checkFP("C:\OxygenBasic\Oxygen.dll")
checkFP("C:\OxygenBasic\Oxygen.?ll")
checkFP("C:\OxygenBasic\Oxygen.*")

Hi Roland

according to https://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/Constants.INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES (https://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/Constants.INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES)

the  INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES =  -1   and it is an int

so i place these into code

% INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES =  -1
 int attrib = GetFileAttributes(szFilePath)

and it works now when compile to 64bits

Code: [Select]
' ExistFilePath.o2bas
' http://www.oxygenbasic.org/forum/index.php?topic=1544.msg18057;topicseen#msg18057
$ filename "ExistFilePath.exe"

'uses rtl32
uses rtl64

uses corewin
uses console

% INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES =  -1  ' 0xffffffff   ' (dword -1) '0xffffffff

function existFP(string szFilePath) as bool
  'path, filename?
 ' dword attrib = GetFileAttributes(szFilePath)
   int attrib = GetFileAttributes(szFilePath)
printl   "  attrib " attrib
  'if attrib != 0xffffffff then return true
 ' if attrib != INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES then return true
   if attrib <> INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES then
      return true
   end if
  return false
end function

sub checkFP(string fp)
  if existFP(fp) then
    printl fp " exists"
  else
    printl fp " does not exist"
  end if
end sub

'check folder
checkFP("c:\temp")
checkFP("C:\temp\Get Start\Tgh")

Hi Chris,

thank you for the link. Unfortunately the function does still not work correctly in Win64. You can check this if you use some correct / incorrect paths / filenames. In Win32 I will get the value -1, in Win64 I will get 4294967295. Only the value for c:\program files is correct.

I tried some more combinations. Perhaps Charles will find out what goes wrong. And maybe GetFileAttributes must not be used any more for this purpose in Win64 (checking for existing files/folders). I am not sure.

Roland
Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Charles Pegge on April 29, 2018, 01:24:26 AM
Hi Roland,

GetFileAttributes, according to MSDN, definitely returns a dword like most other flag carrying values. Perhaps you could monitor its hex return value using a sys variable, and see what comes out for different folders/files.

Hi Charles,

I am getting old. (Hopefully I will get older). It is the second time this month that I do not follow my own advice. I use two different computers for 32 and 64 bit with a different folder for Oxygenbasic. The results must of course be different. Sorry if I caused inconvenience.

And as far as I can see Chris has found the only working solution until now. It seems that in Win64 there is the type Int64 which can be used as int in O2. For me the code now works in 32-bit and 64-bit. As I think it is important for similar cases I add the code below. And perhaps there is another solution nevertheless.

Probably negative constants must be checked a little bit more. They are problematic with notification messages and some special cases like this one.

Roland

Code: [Select]
$ filename "ExistFilePath.exe"

'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

  return false

Hello Roland

my pc is a win10 64bits and i don't have a 32bit machine so that explain why the
program when i first compile works as it is all 64bits
Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Charles Pegge on April 29, 2018, 06:31:17 PM
Gentlemen,

I think the best solution in these negative number situations is to specify the type:

if a=dword -1 then

The alternative is to use an int or dword variable.

my test code:
Code: [Select]
$ filename "t.exe"
uses rtl64
uses corewin
uses console
string f
do
  print cr "filename "
  f=ltrim rtrim input
  if not f then exit do
  dword a=GetFileAttributes f
  'dword n=-1'INVALID_FILE_ATTRIBUTES
  'if a=n then
  if a=dword -1 then
    print "invalid file/folder name" cr
  else
    print "attrib code " a cr
  end if
  'invalid=-1 folders=16 files=32
loop

Hi Charles,

this is a nice little demo which I ported to Oxygenbasic using notify statements. I must use:
dword TCN_SELCHANGE= -551
dword TCN_SELCHANGING= -552

to compile it correctly in Win64. This solution seems to work at any rate. But I am not sure if I am a bit obtuse and overlook all the time the same thing?

Thanks, Roland.

I'm trying a tiny adjustment to O2, so that integer cases are evaluated as 32bit max. This fixes the negative equate case problem, and I don't think it will have any practical disadvantage.

Hi Charles,

running this code snippet in Win32 there is no problem. Running in Win64 the app will crash at some point if I only use the Enter key. If I comment out line 11 or add a statement: if len(ans)=0 then there is no problem in Win64 neither. I only report this result because of the differenc to Win32 behaviour. Maybe with your current version of O2 this is already fixed.

Roland

Code: [Select]
$ filename "TestInput.exe"

uses rtl64

uses console

cls
printl "Do wish to see the answer? (Y/N)"
string ans=input()

ans=ltrim rtrim ans     'Enter in Win64 does not work

if lcase(ans) = "y" then
  printl "Your answer is Yes"
else
  printl "Your answer is not Yes"
end if

printl "Enter ... " : waitkey

Hi Roland,

There were no problems running this code using my current o2. Could you try it again with the console.inc below.

Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Arnold on October 08, 2018, 03:39:14 AM
Using the modified console.inc I get the same result if I only use the Enter key. But as it will work with the current o2 build this is no big deal.

I used the other form as an auxiliary construct to run the demo with older Oxygenbasic releases in Win 64-bit. With the new release this is not necessary any more and I must admit that the other form looks a bit strange anyway.

Fixed. Thanks Roland. That is the only one among the examples. But I've discovered a few more 'dword -' instances to clean up.

Hi Charles,

using version 0.2.6 I found this problem when I try to load a non existing file:

Code: [Select]
$ filename "LoadFile.exe"
'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

string s
string fname="aFile.txt"  'does not exist
getfile fname, s

's=ltrim rtrim(s)          'without comment will crash in 64-bit mode
if len(s)=0 then print "Error loading " + fname else print "Loaded File " fname

Line 9 does not work in 64-bit mode and the app crashes. Using a comment will work in 32-bit mode and in 64-bit mode.

Thanks Roland,

Null strings (with null ponter) not properly processed.  This will be fixed in RTL64.inc, for both ltrim and rtrim

test code:
Code: [Select]
$filename "o.exe"
uses rtl64
string s
print ltrim(rtrim(s))
print "ok"

Hi Charles, Mike,

I would like to refer to \projectsB\Console\Printf.o2bas. The demo works in 32-bit and failes in 64-bit mode. I tried this code snippet:

Code: [Select]
$ Filename "Test_iob.exe"
'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

uses corewin
'uses console

'sys _iob = __p__iob()
'print _iob

print __p__iob()

Must __p__iob() be applied differently in 64-bit mode or is it not available in this mode? The structure FILE is used in stdio.h of tcc also, and printf works with tcc in 64-bit too. But it seems there is another approach used. I simply do not understand this piece of code in stdio.h:

#ifdef _WIN64
  _CRTIMP FILE *__cdecl __iob_func(void);
#else
#ifdef _MSVCRT_
extern FILE _iob[];     /* A pointer to an array of FILE */
#define __iob_func()    (_iob)

Is there a solution to run the different printf functions of msvcrt.dll in 64-bit also? It would be a pity if it is not possible in O2.

Roland,

Though both C and Win32 provide access to consoles to read from or write to, their console systems are not interchangeable.

For instance, C provides STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR consoles that are regarded as pure files, and printf()/fprintf()/etc. functions, to manage their text. On the other hand, Win32 provides indirect access to its consoles through their read/write buffers that bear no resemblance to files/streams.

Therefore, changing the mini-/nanoscheme printing technique from C to O2 Win32-based printing seemed to me too much error-prone PITA. A 32-bit msvcrt.dll runtime is supposed to provide several exported functions that return an array of pointers to STDIN/-OUT/-ERR "files" usable for printing with C file handling functions. Unfortunately, some of the exports turned out to be mere stubs, and __p__iob() was the only one function whose return I was able to use in Oxygen as valid pointers to the console "files".

64-bit C STDIN/-OUT/-ERR "file" access seems to be a little different from 32 bits, and it wasn't actual for me at the time I worked on the 32-bit oxy-/nanoscheme code.

If you feel you can spare your time on switching from C-style printing over to Oxygen-style Win32 printing, you are free to modify the oxyscheme code (it's Public Domain anyway) as you like. But I can't guarantee it won't have any unexpected side effects on the oxyscheme code that's yet unproven functioning in the latest Oxygene builds.

Hi MIke,

probably I can apply sprintf in combination with print and get the same result. Some functions of msvcrt.dll seem to work quite nice in Win64. Unfortunately I have not yet found some more extensive documentation about this dll, many links seem to be broken.

Hi Roland,

In 64bit mode, variadic params 1..4 are passed in cpu registers regardless of float types. Therefore a prototype is required to declare the variadic types:

uses corewin
...
! sprintf (char *s,*f,...) at @sprintf


Code: [Select]
'10:12 12/12/2019
'float variadic params are passed in cpu in 64bit mode
$filename "o.exe"
uses rtl64
uses corewin
char c[64] 'string buffer
double v1=123
extern
 'create an overlay of sprintf with variadic prototype
! sprintf (char *s,*f,...) at @sprintf
#show sprintf (c,"%4.2f",v1) '123.00
print c
Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Arnold on December 13, 2019, 02:37:42 AM
Hi Charles,

this solution of declaring sprintf is indeed brilliant. Now something like this will be possible:

Code: [Select]
char strg
int a = 10, b = 38, double c
c = a / b

sprintf(strg, "Value of Pi = %15.10f" + chr(10) + "Division of %d by %d is: %15.10f", pi, a, b, c)
print strg   

I see that I will need 'extern' for compiling to 64-bit. Is there also a need for 'end extern' or is this not necessary?

Title: Re: Compliant 64-bit compiling
Post by: Charles Pegge on December 13, 2019, 05:10:47 AM
Hi Roland,

Yes, end extern is normally inserted after external declarations, and all functions and their declarations are considered 'internal' by default until the next 'extern' statement.

extern statement direct the compiler to use standard (DLL) calling conventions instead of the more efficient internal calling conventions.

Individual procedures are also made 'extern' by any of the following tags:
external extern callback export

Hi Charles,

I found this code in /inc/crt/win32/stdio.bi of Freebasic v.1.07.1 and it makes me crazy:

...
#ifdef __FB_64BIT__
   declare function __iob_func() as FILE ptr
   #define stdin (@(__iob_func())[STDIN_FILENO])
   #define stdout (@(__iob_func())[STDOUT_FILENO])
   #define stderr (@(__iob_func())[STDERR_FILENO])
#else
   extern import _iob(0 to 2) alias "_iob" as FILE
   #define stdin (@_iob(STDIN_FILENO))
   #define stdout (@_iob(STDOUT_FILENO))
   #define stderr (@_iob(STDERR_FILENO))
#endif
...

I tried to port this to Oxygen but obviously I do it the wrong way:

Code: [Select]
$ Filename "Test_iob.exe"
'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

uses corewin
uses console

indexbase 0

% STDIN_FILENO 0
% STDOUT_FILENO 1
% STDERR_FILENO 2

#ifndef mode64bit
//  extern import _iob(0 to 2) alias "_iob" as FILE
sys _iob = __p__iob()
sys stdin  = @_iob(STDIN_FILENO)
sys stdout = @_iob(STDOUT_FILENO)
sys stderr = @_iob(STDERR_FILENO)
#else
// declare function __iob_func() as FILE ptr
//    #define stdin  (@(__iob_func())[STDIN_FILENO])
//    #define stdout (@(__iob_func())[STDOUT_FILENO])
//    #define stderr (@(__iob_func())[STDERR_FILENO])
sys stdin  = call @__iob_func[STDIN_FILENO]
sys stdout = call @__iob_func[STDOUT_FILENO]
sys stderr = call @__iob_func[STDERR_FILENO]
#endif

printl stdin
printl stdout
printl stderr

printl "Enter"
waitkey

For 32-bit this will work but 64-bit crashes. I think I must do it similar like it was done using dispatch_table in o2scm.o2bas or was done in the demo \examples\Basics\FuncPointers1.o2bas. Although I tried some alternatives, somehow I cannot get any further. My logic is wrong and it seems that I am not flexible enough. Can you help?

This will run in 32-bit and 64-bit mode, but probably there is a better solution:

Code: [Select]
$ Filename "Test_printf.exe"
'uses rtl32
'uses rtl64

uses corewin
uses console

indexbase 0

extern
! printf (char* a, ...) at @printf

% STDIN_FILENO 0
% STDOUT_FILENO 1
% STDERR_FILENO 2

type FILE
char* _ptr
int _cnt
char* _base
int _flag
int _file
int _charbuf
int _bufsiz
char* _tmpfname
end type

#define _O_TEXT 0x4000 // CRLF in file becomes LF in memory!
#define _IONBF  0x4

#ifndef mode64bit
//  extern import _iob(0 to 2) alias "_iob" as FILE
FILE* _iob = __p__iob()
sys stdin  = @_iob(STDIN_FILENO)
sys stdout = @_iob(STDOUT_FILENO)
sys stderr = @_iob(STDERR_FILENO)
#else
// declare function __iob_func() as FILE ptr
sys stdin  = call @__iob_func()
sys stdout = stdin + sizeof(FILE)
sys stderr = stdout + sizeof(FILE)
#endif

'printl stdin
'printl stdout
'printl stderr + cr

sys hCrt = _open_osfhandle(ConsOut, _O_TEXT)
sys hf   = _fdopen(hCrt, "w")
memcpy  stdout, hf, sizeof(FILE)
setvbuf stdout, NULL, _IONBF, 0

fprintf(stdout, "loading %s" + chr(10), "Testfile.txt")
fprintf(stdout, "Oxygen ")
printf (chr(10) + "OxygenBasic")

printl "Enter"
waitkey

It should be possible to create a __iob_func() table, but I do not know how this can be done.

sys stdin  = @_iob(STDIN_FILENO)

FILE* _iob = __iob_func()
sys stdin  = @_iob(STDIN_FILENO)
sys stdout = @_iob(STDOUT_FILENO)
sys stderr = @_iob(STDERR_FILENO)
'sys stdin  = __iob_func()

I guess msvcrt.dll, the oldest one, will be supported forever as there are millions of apps linked against that runtime. Conversely, later incarnations are bound to specific MS VC builds/versions and live only as long as those versions are in use until superseded.
