I am testing my application on vista RC1 and i observed that it uses
winhttp version 6.0. But i did not find any information on 6.0 and
platform SDK for that.

Currently the problem i am facing is in setting up HTTPS connection
using winhttp. My application is crashing while doing a
"WinhttpSendRequest" with access violation in secure32.dll.

Everything works fine in 2K and XP.

any clue?

thanks!!

FYI

Winhttp does not support version 6.0. It continues to support version
5.1 with several key new features look at the msdn docs under "What's
New in Windows Longhorn". Also, another good reference would be

Thanks Deepak for this information.

But i am not really clear on this. I have an application which uses
5.1 and if i execute it on Vista RC1, application is crashing. I am not
sure why is this.
When i checked for winhttp.dll version on vista it is 6.0.

thanks...

Hello,
The version number you see on the dll does not reflect the winhttp
version. Do not ask me why, but that is the case ? Note other dlls
would also have version 6

Thanks,Deepak

Try reporting this problem on the microsoft.public.security newsgroup.
Include the callstack of the crash (even if you do not have symbols).

Although, the solution might be to try on the final/RTM version of Vista.
