Volume Shadow Copy Service 7.2 SDK for XP 64bit platform

[sudhivns]

Hi ,

Does Volume Shadow Copy Service 7.2 SDK work with XP 64bit platform.
We have seen issues with compiling(using vssapi.lib ) the c++ application.
Same SDK work for XP 32bit and XP 64bit ?
Are there any architecture(Intel,AMD) specific libraries on XP.

Regards,
Sudhi

- Intel IA-32 architecture. x86-64 is implemented by AMD as "AMD64", found in AMD's Opteron,

C:\Program Files\Microsoft\VSSSDK72\inc\win2003
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\VSSSDK72\lib\win2003\obj\amd64 , also tried
C:\Program Files\Microsoft\VSSSDK72\lib\win2003\obj\ia64

Hi,

If it is not too late, you can use https://sourceforge.net/projects/pyvss/ :

PyVSS is a python module which allows you to copy files using Volume Shadow Copy Service (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_Copy ). It is in an early development phase, yet is stable, simple and straight-forward to use.

At this moment is only able to copy files using VSS.
