Hi,


(Sorry previous message had html formatting apparently)


Nice work this FreeRDP project and library.
I was looking into it recently and I have a few notes:

1) NLA doesn't work yet, I tried the GIT version, but it did not seem to work. 
Maybe it's currently only included in the tests ?
As soon as this works, I would bring out a working stable version ASAP. Because 
this support is really great if it's there!!
Coud somebody explain me how to get a current working version? Which git 
command exactly?

2) Compiling on windows: MT flag is much handier than MD. MT compiles all 
microsoft dependencies right into the library/exe and makes sure you don't 
require visual studio redistribution packages, dll's etc

3) Visual studio project currently only compiles in debug and not in release. 
Some extra preprocessor defines and libraries were added, but only in the debug 
project and not the release project. It was easy to fix, but you'd expect the 
release compile would work out of the box. Anyway great to see there is a 
windows compile :)

4) You could make all libraries static and even get it more nice together. I 
compiled everything into 1 EXE including openssl packages; this leaves me with 
FreeRDP.exe (+- 800 kb uncompressed) only! I can put this file wherever and I 
have a fully working RDP client!

5) What really annoyed me was the debug output. You guys are using 3 methods or 
more for debug output including printf and fprintf to stdout, this looks like 
very bad practice. Although it's a GUI app, you're also supplying a library and 
everything.
Please make all debug output get redirected into debug functions and please 
don't use printf's and stdout for this. This is horrible. It would be great if 
you could fix this and bring the library more into enterprise standards!


Anyway keep up the good work, it's good to see some development on this topic 
again!




BTW You should check the open discusion forum on sourceforge, I see several 
messages there never replied to ;)
