I am trying to do a default build of OpenSSL on Windows. The compiler does not like building with ASM files and complains the following:
ml /Cp /coff /c /Cx /Focrypto\sha\asm\s1_win32.obj .\crypto\sha\asm\s1_win32.asm Assembling: .\crypto\sha\asm\s1_win32.asm Microsoft (R) Macro Assembler Version 8.00.50727.762 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. .\crypto\sha\asm\s1_win32.asm(13) : error A2008: syntax error : integer NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\ml.EXE"' : return code '0x1' Stop. This problem seems to be a known issue. http://marc.info/?l=openssl-dev&m=121204499318732&w=1 I tried both the solutions mentioned but to no avail. Any other suggestions? Cheers, Simon M
