Is it still called win32 nowadays? Because that name has existed for a very long time now, and early win32 stuff doesn't even run on windows without sysWOW64 stuff. I'm sure some versioning more granular than windows version names exists, but the extent of my windows knowledge is occasionally reading newoldthing.
- FirmwareBurner 3y agoI don't know what the modern ABI is called, I only quoted what was in the back of my head so I could be wrong on the name but my point still stands.
- runjake 3y agoIIRC, it's called the Windows API now, with Win64 being the active variant on modern Windows. It is essentially Win32 with 64-bit additions. The Win32/low-level Windows programmers I know still just refer to it as "Win32", though.
