We would really appreciate having your work go into the product. I don't think any of the current LDAP maintainers work much with Windows (I work for Red Hat, for example), so any help in this regard is appreciated. For starters, you should file a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org against the LDAP C SDK, then you can attach files that you want to contribute to that bug. Next, the wiki pages at http://wiki.mozilla.org/LDAP_C_SDK should be updated with your new build instructions. > > It was a head banging, eye burning experience, but in the end the > regard was so sweet that I forget all the last days pain.

If you would like to be a contributor and help us with the Windows port more in the future, you might consider getting CVS access - http://www.mozilla.org/hacking/committer/ > > Kashif Ali Siddiqui > Tech Lead HipLink > > On Jul 23, 7:31 pm, Rich Megginson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Kashif Ali Siddiqui wrote: >>> Hi, >>> After applying the SP1 Redistributable Package, the problem persists. >>> I think it is due to my VC project type which is "Multi threaded (MT)" >>> whereas the pre-compiled 6.0.3 binaries are compiled in "Multi >>> threaded DLL (MD)" configuration. >> I didn't think that would be a problem - what leads you to think that? >> >>> If this the case, then I can't >>> change my project type and need to have new compiled binaries.
