Re: Building Cyrus SASL 2.1.26 on Win 64

Sorry for not being clearer with my question: If I try to run nmake /f NTMakefile, the build fails in the plugins folder because of some missing plugin dependencies (openssl, DB etc). All I want to build is the sasl lib dll and the 'plain' plugin.


My use case is as follows: I have written a Cyrus SASL plugin that implements a proprietary authentication mechanism. I have tested this on Linux and now I want to test this on Windows. Before I test my plugin, I want to sanity-check the setup and sasl lib build by using the 'plain' mechanism.


I managed to build just the lib and 'plain' plugin by changing the PLUGINS variable in plugins/NTMakefile. I was just wondering if there was a cleaner way to do this?

It looks like this fella forgot to take his pill (or perhaps on the
blob)! :-[

What have you tried so far? Any error messages?
We have successfully built it on (native) Windows.
