Windows CE Toolkit for Visual C++ 6.0
Can applications be built with this tool that adhere to the Microsoft Year 2000 Compliance Statement?
Yes
Operational Range for Data: Depends upon Windows CE Operating System
How the product runtime handles dates:
This development tool can create applications that call the Windows CE Operating System date application programming interfaces (APIs).
Visual C++ 6.0 for Windows CE handles dates through the range of clock dates between 1970 and 2037. Leap years are handled properly, and the product functions with dates to 2037 without issue.
Two-digit shortcut handling:
Two-digit shortcuts, if desired, must be totally implemented by the programmer using this development tool.
Note on Internet Explorer 4.01 Service Pack 1:
If Outlook Express (OE) 4.01 (Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2) receives an IMAP mail message or a News message with a 2-digit year as the sent date, the date can be misinterpreted under certain conditions. If the 2-digit year is anything other than 99, OE will assume the century value is the same as the current century. If the current year is 2000, and a 2-digit date is received as 97, then the year will be interpreted as 2097. However, there is one special case when different logic is applied. If the 2-digit year 99 is received and the current year is a multiple of 100 (e.g. 2000), then the year will be interpreted as the current year plus 98 (e.g. 2098). You can find more information about this software update in the Internet Explorer (32-bit) 4.0x Year 2000 disclosure document.
Recommended practices to develop year 2000 compliant applications:
The only known Year 2000 issue is that the standard C library time.h is not supported in this release. These time APIs are planned to be supported in a future release; in the meantime the programmer should use the standard Windows CE APIs for handling dates. These APIs and their year 2000 compliance are documented separately for each Windows CE Operating System release.
Common development errors dealing with year 2000 date issues:
A programmer may create date fields using this product and may be assuming 2-digit year fields to be 19XX. Programmers are advised to review such code. | |
