Hi,
I am trying to use libssh2 in Visual Studio 2010 Express C++. I am using ssh2 from the example directory.
I managed to get libssh2 (version 1.2.7) for Windows as a dll from http://josefsson.org/gnutls4win/.
According to MSDN this is the required code to get access to a dll at run time:
>>
HINSTANCE hinstLib;
MYPROC ProcAdd;
BOOL fFreeResult, fRunTimeLinkSuccess = FALSE;
// Get a handle to the DLL module.
hinstLib = LoadLibrary(TEXT("libssh2-1.dll"));
// If the handle is valid, try to get the function address.
if (hinstLib != NULL)
{
ProcAdd = (MYPROC) GetProcAddress(hinstLib, "libssh2_session_init");
// If the function address is valid, call the function.
if (NULL != ProcAdd)
{
fRunTimeLinkSuccess = TRUE;
(ProcAdd) ();
}
// Free the DLL module.
fFreeResult = FreeLibrary(hinstLib);
}
// If unable to call the DLL function, use an alternative.
if (! fRunTimeLinkSuccess)
printf("Unable to access Dynamic Library libssh2-1.dll or routine libssh2_session_init\n");
<<
1. Has anyone used this approach for libssh2? If so, is there somewhere I can get the code stubs for
all the libssh2 functions (perhaps as a "define")?
2. When I try to compile ssh2 example it is unable to find:
closesocket
socket
connect
htons
htonl
inet_addr
WSAStartup
Does anyone know which dll on Windows have these system calls?
3. Would I be better off using MinGW or some other build package for Windows?
