Re: openssh build with Strawberry Perl provided gcc

in reply to openssh build with Strawberry Perl provided gcc

I haven't built openssh with the Strawberry provided MinGW gcc compiler, but I have built many other Win32 C / C++ projects with it.

It does build standalone Win32 executables, i.e., they don't rely on Cygwin. So your project will need to have the appropriate Windows headers / libraries. Stuff like this:

#ifndef WIN32
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <netdb.h>
#include <arpa/inet.h>
#else
#include <winsock2.h>
#include <ws2tcpip.h>
#endif
[download]

And then link to Windows libraries like libws2_32.a (-lws2_32) ...
