Hi folks,

Just joined the mailing list, so don't jump all over me if I'm rehashing old
news. I verified the Win32 client on Win98 and it doesn't work, as stated on
the web site.

First, I haven't spent time on tracking down what _exactly_ is going wrong,
but I've noticed that the returned ID is the same as running a zeroed out
CDINDEX_CDINFO struct through MD5. Maybe that helps a little.

Second, I _have_ spent time converting the source code to Delphi, and that
code works just fine on both NT and 98. The code is restructured somewhat
for
ease of use, so that the only function to call is this:

function GetCdIndex : string;

or

char * GetCdIndex();

in C speak.

I can build a console or GUI application in no time, if anyone's interested.
