Hi!

I could use some help with compiling XmlSec (the latest version 1.2.18) on Windows. My original attempts were done using MingW/Msys and these failed even before I got to compiling XmlSec (I just couldn't get some prerequisites to compile).

With MSVC 10.0, I eventually managed to compile all prerequisites, and now I am trying to compile XmlSec itself. The problem is, I keep getting thousands of errors in header files:

cl.exe /nologo /D "WIN32" /D "_WINDOWS" /D "_MBCS" /D "_REENTRANT" /W1 /MD /I.. /I..\include /I.\include /D PACKAGE=\"xmlsec\" /D "HAVE_STDIO_H" /D "HAVE_STDLIB_H" /D "HAVE_STRING_H" /D "HAVE_CTYPE_H" /D "HAVE_MALLOC_H" /D "HAVE_MEMORY_H" /D "_DEBUG" /Od /Z7 /DXMLSEC_MSCRYPTO_NT4=1 /D "XMLSEC_DL_WIN32" /D "XMLSEC_OPENSSL_098" /D "XMLSEC_CRYPTO_OPENSSL" /D "XMLSEC_CRYPTO=\"openssl\"" /Folibxmlsec_openssl.int\ /c ..\src\openssl\app.c ..\src\openssl\bn.c ..\src\openssl\ciphers.c ..\src\openssl\crypto.c ..\src\openssl\digests.c ..\src\openssl\evp.c ..\src\openssl\hmac.c ..\src\openssl\kt_rsa.c ..\src\openssl\kw_aes.c ..\src\openssl\kw_des.c ..\src\openssl\signatures.c ..\src\openssl\symkeys.c ..\src\openssl\x509.c ..\src\openssl\x509vfy.c

And so on and so on. After 100 errors the compiler stops and tries another file, which fails with similar errors (on different lines, though). Searching the archives, I found a 2005 message which seemed somewhat relevant (http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02730.html) and the answer suggested that the user was using a wrong OpenSSL version. That is not the case with my setup, as far as I can tell.

I am using a clean Windows XP SP3 install with a clean Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 Express on it. I compiled the following packages (in listed order):

- Zlib 1.2.5 - I used the supplied win32\Makefile.msc
- Iconv 1.13 - this one gave me headaches until I learned that I can build it using MingW and then copy the .a files to .lib files for MSVC to use. Maybe this is the cause of my problems? But what else am I supposed to do, considering that Iconv doesn't support MSVC anymore?
- LibXml2 2.7.8 - with configure.js options compiler=msvc zlib=yes debug=yes
- LibXslt 1.1.26 - with configure.js options compiler=msvc zlib=yes debug=yes - OpenSSL 0.9.8r - with configure option VC-WIN32, build batch ms\do_masm and makefile ms\ntdll.mak - XmlSec 1.2.18 - with configure.js options crypto=openssl unicode=no debug=yes. I also tried crypto=openssl=098, under the influence of the 2005 message

What can I possibly do to fix this problem? The files with errors listed seem OK to me, but I am not a C programmer so maybe I am missing something obvious.

Thanks,

Pepak
