Subject: Net::SSLeay on Windows X64


We're running Activestate Perl 5.10.0.1004 on Windows x64. We are
interested in the Net::SSLeay package for x64, but we have not had
success locating a PPM that works, nor success build it using the free
compilers/linkers available.

================================

Do you have the compiler that built ActivePerl 5.10.0.1004 for Windows x64 ? 
It's called "Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK" and you can get it at at:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=484269E2-3B89-47E3-8EB7-1F2BE6D7123A&displaylang=en

You can get an x64 build of openssl (that was built using VC 8) from 
http://pecl2.php.net/downloads/php-windows-builds/php-libs/VC8/x64/

I grabbed 
http://pecl2.php.net/downloads/php-windows-builds/php-libs/VC8/x64/openssl-0.9.8h-vc8-x64.zip
 
and have just used my "Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK" compiler to 
build Net-SSLeay-1.35 against that VC 8 build of openssl. (I have the same 
build of perl as you, btw.)

One test failed (t/local/00_ptr_cast.t), but it fails only because it fails 
to compile a test program:
fatal error C1083: Cannot open compiler generated file: 'ptr_cast_test.obj': 
Permission denied

Not sure why that error occurs - I'll have to play around with it.  All 
other tests pass.

If you don't want to mess around trying to build Net-SSLeay-1.35 yourself, I 
could send you a ppm package of it - just let me know.
I've never used ppm with my x64 build of perl ... I assume it works fine 
with the x64 builds.

Cheers,
Rob
