Hi, I was recently compiling EPICS base 3.15 for an earlier windows version from Windows 10 and had a compile error with the WIN32 base implementation of SetThreadName.cpp. The file always sets _WIN32_WINNT to 0x400 (Specifying Windows NT
4.0, the comment says it is dropping support for W95!) which then conflicted with my setting of NTDDI_VERSION. The _WIN32_WINNT macro is also set to 0x400 in osdMutex.c and osdThread.c but in these files it is only set if not otherwise defined externally.
A similar check for an existing definition in SetThreadName.cpp would avoid my compile issue, but as Windows 95 and NT 4.0 are long in the past I wonder if removing these redefinitions of _WIN32_WINNT from base would now be appropriate
Regards,
