Hi!
I have a Problem with the API "GetVersionEx" i Need the Information wich Windows System is running.
Microsoft mean this:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724834(v=vs.85).aspx
But I become sometimes the wrong Version back e.g:
Windows VISTA and Windows 2008 Server have the same Version Number the different is:
OSVERSIONINFOEX.wProductType == VER_NT_WORKSTATION / OSVERSIONINFOEX.wProductType != VER_NT_WORKSTATION
But i become not the Information back about wProductType...
Her are more Details:
01 OSVERSIONINFO is typedef.
03 dwOSVersionInfoSize DWORD.
03 dwMajorVersion DWORD.
03 dwMinorVersion DWORD.
03 dwBuildNumberFull.
05 dwBuildNumber USHORT.
05 dwMajorAndMinor USHORT.
03 dwPlatformId DWORD.
03 szCSDVersion PIC X(128).
03 dwServicePack DWORD.
03 dwMinorPack DWORD.
03 dwSuiteMask DWORD.
03 dwProductType BYTE.
03 wReserved BYTE.
78 OSVERSIZE VALUE 148.
78 GetVersionEx VALUE "GetVersionExA".
01 WS-MYOSVER OSVERSIONINFO.
01 WS-MYOSOK BOOL.
here is the call:
INITIALIZE VERSIONINFOEX.
move OSVERSIZE to dwOSVersionInfoSize of ws-myOSVer.
CALL WINAPI GetVersionEx uSING
BY REFERENCE WS-MYOSVER
RETURNING WS-MYOSOK
END-CALL.
The "dwProductType" is every time 0 on everey Windows Version
The same Problem is between Windows 8 and 2012 Server and so on...
Have anyone an idea whats wrong?
Best Regards
Bernd
#APIGetVersionExHi,
Length of WS-MYOSVER is 156 bytes, not 148.

#APIGetVersionExNow i become this for Windows 8.1:
MajorVersion 6
MinorVersion 2
BuildNumber 9200
MajorAndMonir 0
PlattformId 2
CSDVersion
ServicePack 0
MinorPack 65792

#APIGetVersionExThis seems to be a change that was made to this API call for Windows 8.1 in that it will return the same info as Windows 8 unless the application from which the call is made is specifically targeted to Windows 8.1 by using a manifest file.

#APIGetVersionExThe same is with Windows VISTA and 2003
What I Need is the "dwProductType" Information!
With that parameter you can find out wich Windows Version is running!

#APIGetVersionExHave a looked @ msdn.microsoft.com/.../ms724833(v=vs.85).aspx
wProductType:
Any additional information about the system. This member can be one of the following values.
VER_NT_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER 0x0000002
The system is a domain controller and the operating system is Windows Server 2012 , Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000 Server.
VER_NT_SERVER 0x0000003
The operating system is Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2003, or Windows 2000 Server.
Note that a server that is also a domain controller is reported as VER_NT_DOMAIN_CONTROLLER, not VER_NT_SERVER.
VER_NT_WORKSTATION 0x0000001
The operating system is Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Home Edition, or Windows 2000 Professional.
The next link shows you how to make your application target Windows 8.1 (or anything else):
msdn.microsoft.com/.../dn481241(v=vs.85).aspx
Lastly if you want to ensure your app works on an particular platform use the VerifyVersionInfo API

#APIGetVersionExYour example program was using the VERSIONINFO, for GetVersionEx which is wrong you need to use OSVERSIONINFOEX for GetVersionEx.
Here is a working example:
$set ans85 noosvs mf defaultbyte"00"
copy "windows.cpy".
$IF 32-BIT NOT DEFINED
$ set constant 32-BIT(1)
$ set case
$END
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. getv.
special-names.
$IF 32-BIT = 0
call-convention 11 is WINAPI.
$ELSE
call-convention 74 is WINAPI.
$END
data division.
01 VERSIONINFOEX.
03 dwOSVersionInfoSize DWORD.
03 dwMajorVersion DWORD.
03 dwMinorVersion DWORD.
03 dwBuildNumber DWORD.
03 dwPlatformId DWORD.
03 szCSDVersion pic x(128).
03 wServicePackMajor WORD.
03 wServicePackMinor WORD.
03 wSuiteMask WORD.
03 wProductType BYTE.
03 wReserved BYTE.
78 GetVersionEx VALUE "GetVersionExA".
01 WS-MYOSOK BOOL.
procedure division.
INITIALIZE VERSIONINFOEX.
move length of VERSIONINFOEX to
dwOSVersionInfoSize of VERSIONINFOEX
CALL WINAPI GetVersionEx uSING
BY REFERENCE VERSIONINFOEX
RETURNING WS-MYOSOK
END-CALL
display wProductType
evaluate wProductType
when 1 display "Workstation"
when 2 display "Domain Controller"
end-evaluate
end program.
