Hi Jeff,

I finally had some time to follow the instructions you gave me. 
And... it compiled! Great!

Did take me another 4.5 hours btw.
Half of that time got into rewriting the source code for MSVC; the other half 
into finding out why my 32-bit compilation didn't link correctly against my 
64-bit Apache httpd. sigh.

I learned a lot, and couldn't have done it without your assistance. Thanks!

Kind regards,

Paul Klinkenberg

I prefer cmake.  This should work reasonably if your httpd install looks
like the one installed with the cmake build:  (probably stuff is in the
right place)

If you try this and it works, let me know; I could put the generic one
(i.e., not "cfml") on Github with a license and readme with a pointer in
the script.  I don't know if this is really enough code to have a license
for; my only concern is that I wouldn't want anyone to see this with some
other code and think that it is not free to use more widely than the code
they found it with.

------------- CMakeLists.txt --------------
PROJECT(MODS C)

CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8)

SET(modnames cfml)

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/include)

FOREACH(shortname ${modnames})
   SET(modbase "mod_${shortname}")
   SET(modbasename "${modbase}.c")
   ADD_LIBRARY(${modbase} SHARED ${modbasename})
   SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(${modbase} PROPERTIES SUFFIX .so)
   TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${modbase}
"${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib/libhttpd.lib"
"${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib/libapr-1.lib"
"${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/lib/libaprutil-1.lib")
   INSTALL(TARGETS ${modbase} RUNTIME DESTINATION modules)
ENDFOREACH()
----------------- end ---------------------------------

Put this CMakeLists.txt file in the directory with your source.

In MS Visual Studio command prompt:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=\path\to\httpd\install -G "NMake Makefiles"
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo \path\to\your\source
nmake && nmake install
