    Take a look at Ice-2.0.0/INSTALL.WINDOWS, there's a section explaining how to build Ice for Windows 98 (you need to comment out some code in include/IceUtil/Config.h to prevent IceUtil from using critical sections which are only partially supported on Windows 98).

    Let us know if this doesn't help!

    Because I build the program in Win2003,and copy it to Win98 directly.
    as your say,if I must re-build these application again in Win98 when i
    distribute these Application to Win98 ?

    No, you can continue to build Ice on Window 2003 and use it on Windows 98. However, you must make sure to comment out some code in include/IceUtil/Config.h before you build it. Commenting out this code will make sure that critical sections are not used by IceUtil (instead, it will use other synchronization primitives which are supported on Windows 98). Please take a look at INSTALL.WINDOWS for the relevant code to comment out.
