Re: WDT 5.1 on XP

[Violaine Batthish <batthish@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

I just wanted to point out that as far as the CODE team is concerned, we
never really "remove" support for a release.
Generally speaking, we test the most current client version with all
supported host versions as backends.
You may find that older versions than the earliest supported AS/400 version
work (but we don't guarantee anything as we haven't really tested it).
As another note, the verfiers, the compile option dialog and the language
help  will usually match up with the most current version of the host.

In the case of WDSC 4.0,  host releases V4R5M0 and later are officially
supported.

Hope this helps!

To refine that statement just a bit.... WDSc Version 4.0 is the _follow_ on
product to the WDT V5.1, and yes, so far it appears to work just fine back
to OS/400 V4R5 as well as being targeted for V5R1 and V5R2. I no longer
have
any clients at earlier releases. (Thank goodness!)
