Hi Daniel,
     The attached Makefiles makes libcurl compile with make vc-ssl-dll
     (If you find my changes useful, I can try the other compiling options
too).

     Even if you say curl do not uses winsock anymore, I had to link with
the
     WS2_32.LIB and WINMM.LIB (unresolved externals).

     Moreover, I had to add the $(SSLLIBS) to the LNK declaration in the
release-ssl-dll section
     of the Makefile.

     The problem about curlx_tvdiff, curlx_tvnow, curlx_strtoll still
exists
     in curl 7.12, so I had to add them to tha libcurl.def (thanks Gisle
Vanem!).

     I tried -DWITHOUT_MM_LIB (or /D "WITHOUT_MM_LIB") but it didn't seem
to work.

     Anyway, if you remember, some time ago, I told you about some problems
with
     libcurl and my proxy (IPlanet). I wanted to try to use the newest
libcurl version
     to see if something has changed and I have to admit that something has
changed: the
     problem has changed !

     Did you change the way you handle the cookies? I'll try to explain
what I do:

     My application uses libcurl to perform the following actions:
     Client:
          * Login to the server (a simple multipart post with username and
password)
     Server:
          * Checks the login. If successfull, save the data in the session
and
            return an acknowledge. The session is manteined using a cooky.
     Client:
          * send some data
     Server:
          * Check if a session exists and check if the user is logged in.

     The server is a Java Servlet application on WebSphere Application
Server.

     When I work through the proxy, the server makes me enter (USERNAME/PWD
OK),
     and then, when I try to send the data, says I'm not logged in.

     This do not happen when I connect without the proxy or when I use the
JAVA application.
     This didn't happen with older curl version (with older version I used
to get 'Empty response from server')

     Thank you all in advance,
          Massimiliano

Actually, these ones don't belong in libcurl.def, they are only
source-level
provided functions: http://curl.haxx.se/lxr/source/lib/README.curlx

The only reason these ones exist, is that I prefer not to duplicate the
source
code for the lib and the app, but I don't want to add them to the public
API.

The windows makefiles are not adjusted to this system, afaik. When you
build a
static lib it is no problem, it only appears when you build a true shared
libcurl.
