I am using couchbase lite for java (couchbase-lite-java-1.3.1) for my JavaFX application.
My code is working well on Mac OS X, Windows 7/10.
Now I am trying to make it work on Windows XP but I am getting the following error:
Executing C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Testy\Testy\dist\run618830020\Testy.jar using platform C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\NetBeans_JavaSE_7.4_Portable\App\jdk\jre/bin/java

I use the same Netbeans project for Mac OS X, Windows 7 and for Windows XP.
Do you have some info about this problem? It is trying to use a procedure in CouchbaseLiteJavaForestDB.dll…
Thank you for additional information. It looks fine. DLL for Windows x86 exists.
From following error message, I believe DLL couchbase provides does not meet the requirements to run CBL on Windows x86. I am not sure what are missing from this log message.
I believe Windows XP is not officially supported by CBL Java. Can you build couchbase-lite-java-forestdb for Windows XP by yourself?
“Not supported” means that we do not have documentation or guides for it. You’re on your own, unfortunately. (I’m sure you must have some legitimate reason to be developing for XP, but it’s an ancient OS.)
You could follow the instruction in README of couchbase-lite-java. We have never built it with Win XP. If you have build issue, please post here. We might be able to help you.
I cloned the Github repository “couchbase-lite-java” and read readme instructions.
I see that Visual Studio 2013 is required to build. I can’t install VS2013 on Windows XP because it is not supported.
The last supported version on XP is Visual Studio 2010. Can I use it?
@borrrden
Couchbase provided DLL, which was built with VC2015 on Windows 7, does not work on Windows XP. Do you know how we can figure out the requirements (redistributable package)?
The software we develop is used in developing countries in health domain (Tuberculosis). Half of the diagnostic computers financed by WHO are on Windows XP. The reason we chose Couchbase Mobile is that it meets well all our requirements. Sorry, but I don’t see where Windows XP is marked as not supported.
Given that Microsoft support for Windows XP itself formally ended nearly three years ago I’d think that it would be in the “better ask to make sure” category and not the “safe unless marked otherwise category,” but regardless I don’t think there is anywhere that claims support for it (although we could do better with our support statement for mobile) and support is generally in the explicit category (i.e. we support X) as opposed to the implicit category (i.e. we don’t support X).
) and see later if I can build ForestDB for XP.
