[PATCH] IPv6 with no problems on Win2k and earlier

From: Stefan Küng <tortoisesvn_at_gmail.com>

Hi,

A while ago I sent a patch to make Subversion compile with IPv6 support.
Now there's a small problem which appears when using the latest Vista
SDK instead of an earlier one:

With the Vista SDK, it is required to define _WIN32_WINNT to >= 0x0501
if IPv6 is needed. If the define is set to a lower Windows version, IPv6
won't work (and with VS2008 it won't even compile properly).
But setting that define to XP or later (>= 0x0501) breaks the
application when run on OS versions < XP (e.g., Win2k).

To make the application work on < XP and still have IPv6 support on >=
XP systems (or Win2k with the IPv6 preview pack - but I won't recommend
anyone installing it, believe me...), it's required to include the
Wspiapi.h header file, and the ws2tcpip.h header file from the SDK. This
will compile a stub function in for the IPv6 functions which call the
original functions on >= XP, but fall back to the old functions on < XP.

The attached patch fixes this problem.

Sorry about this: I haven't noticed this problem before because I didn't
use the Vista SDK but still the one which came with VS2005, and I
usually don't test things on Win2k anymore.

Stefan
