I've been down that road before as well. The problem with an in-tree version of GnuTLS is that we have to be sure we keep it updated. Security packages require more diligence in that regard than, for instance, our in-tree version of zlib or libjpeg-turbo. GnuTLS is also a lot more complicated than the latter. It really needs to fall to the GnuTLS project to provide a sane way of building under Visual C++. I'm not expecting that to happen anytime soon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
