I'd need to see how we would build with this (we build mostly WITH_xxx=dll), but a priori it addresses many of the problems that we
are currently addressing the MAKE="NMAKE /e" trick...

That’s one example of what we need.

As is that.

> An example of calling the make is: nmake -f Makefile.vc mode=static VC=14 WITH_SSL=static WITH_ZLIB=static WITH_SSH2=static
> GEN_PDB=yes DEBUG=no MACHINE=x64 SSL_CFLAGS="/I$(OpenSSLIncDir)" ZLIB_CFLAGS="/I$(ZlibIncDir)"
> SSH2_CFLAGS="/I$(Libssh2IncDir)" SSL_LIBS="libcrypto.lib libssl.lib" ZLIB_LIBS=zlib.lib SSH2_LIBS=libssh2.lib
> DEVEL_LFLAGS="/LIBPATH:$(OpenSSLLibDir) /LIBPATH:$(ZlibLibDir) /LIBPATH:$(Libssh2LibDir)". The $(xxx) are variables that point to
> the actual include and library paths.

That looks about what we'd need. I'm assuming that somewhere in there is an inferred "ENABLE_WINSSL=no"

Is there the option of setting BASE_NAME and BASE_NAME_DEBUG? we need that (to keep the dll name space separate).

Great news!. Thanks.

Hmm. Let's see whether git can eat it, failing that I guess that the Unix support in "Anniversary Edition" will eat it.

I'll try and review this this week.
