Hi Everyone,

We went through the Visual Studio 2010 project files and cleaned them up. 
Its been an on-going cleanup, but there were three or four items this time. 
Also see "Visual Studio 2010 project file cleanup", 
https://github.com/weidai11/cryptopp/issues/314.

One of the necessary changes was the CRYPTDLL project, which the library 
uses when going through a validation. VS 2012 and above required us to 
opt-out of ASLR, while it allowed opt-in for VS 2010 and below. The change 
was committed so you not see the error due to relocations, "Crypto++ DLL 
in-memory integrity check failed. This may be caused by debug breakpoints 
or DLL relocation".

For completeness, only the project can build the FIPS validated DLL. You 
can build a [crippled] DLL, but it won't be FIPS validated. Also see 
https://www.cryptopp.com/wiki/FIPS_DLL.

If you want/need a DLL, then use the static lib - cryptlib.lib - as a 
starting point. Then, wrap the Crypto++ stuff you want in DLL functions 
which are exported by your module. Speaking from experience, its much 
easier that way.

Jeff
