Thanks for the info.
I am new to Visual Studio C++ development.
But from what I read dynamic linking means calls to the dll is resolved at run time and
implicit/static linking is resolved at compile time. Does this mean if I use implicit linking and
the location of the dll changes then I need to recompile my client program?
I tried implicit linking:
1. I downloaded the libssh2.dll (version 1.2.7), libgcrypt.dll, libgpg-error.dll
2. I created *.obj for libssh2 using MSDN document "How To Create 32-bit Import Libraries Without .OBJs or Source"
This is a dummy *.obj file used to tell the linker about the calls in the dll.
3. I wrote a very simple client program based on MSDN socket program:
sock=ssh_connection(host)); /* Creates socket to host */
session = libssh2_session_init();
if (status=libssh2_session_startup(session, sock)) exit(0);
userauthlist = libssh2_userauth_list(session, username, strlen(username));
However userauthlist is empty. If I run the same program (replacing the socket creation part) on my Redhat Linux system
with the same user it works fine. This is the trace from openssh:

Questions
=========
1. Can someone spot what is wrong?
2. libssh2.dll calls routines in libgcrypt.dll which in turn calls routines in libgpg-error.dll.
Do I need to do anything special with *.obj for libssh2 to tell Windows about this?

I haven't done it, but it should be reasonably straightforward.
I'm assuming you have a specific reason for dynamically linking...

I've used VC 2008 with libssh2 and it worked well.
I've found VC 2010 to be pretty similar, so it should work equally well.
MinGW would probably only complicate things.
You can take a look at the VC 2008 .vcproj file for my libssh2 sample at:
