I think what Ray mainly wanted to say is that sftp basically works on
Windows (and also on Windows 8).
But these binaries are build with the MinGW compiler, and even if it
might be possible to use the *.a libs (after converting to .lib) from
MSVC it is not recommended; in general it is also not recommended to
use MSVC pre-build binaries with MSVC unless you know exactly with
which MSVC version + settings they were build.
That means for you that you should build libcurl + any needed
dependency libs with *your* MSVC version from scratch, and then build
your example and link against your own created libs.
For your use case you would have to build at least:
OpenSSL
libssh2 (linked against your OpenSSL version)
libcurl (linked against your libssh2 version)
Yes, and I tried under Windows 8 x64 using pageant and it worked fine to
do a directory listing. The directions I followed to install freeSSHd
can be found at [1]. I installed it in a Windows 7 x64 VM.
How did you build libssh2 Daniel? There is a document on the curl
website for building OpenSSL, libssh2 and libcurl that can be found at
[2]. I have a build process that is more complicated if that doesn't
work. Please heed to Gün's advice and don't make .lib files from the .a
files.
