If you use MSVC 6 it is required that you use the February 2003 edition PSDK:
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm
- Building any software with MSVC 6 without having PSDK installed is just
- asking for trouble down the road once you have released it, you might notice
- the problems in the first corner or ten miles ahead, depending mostly on your
- choice of static vs dynamic runtime and third party libraries. Anyone using
- software built in such way will at some point regret having done so.
-
- When someone uses MSVC 6 without PSDK he is using a compiler back from 1998.
-
- If the compiler has been updated with the installation of a service pack as
- those mentioned in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/194022 the compiler can be
- safely used to read source code, translate and make it object code.
-
- But, even with the service packs mentioned above installed, the resulting
- software generated in such an environment will be using outdated system
- header files and libraries with bugs and security issues which have already
- been addressed and fixed long time ago.
-
- In order to make use of the updated system headers and fixed libraries
- for MSVC 6, it is required that 'Platform SDK', PSDK from now onwards,
- is installed. The specific PSDK that must be installed for MSVC 6 is the
- February 2003 edition, which is the latest one supporting the MSVC 6 compiler,
- this PSDK is also known as 'Windows Server 2003 PSDK' and can be downloaded
- from http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm
-
- So, building c-ares and libc-ares with MSVC 6 without PSDK is absolutely
- discouraged for the benefit of anyone using software built in such
- environment. And it will not be supported in any way, as we could just
- be hunting bugs which have already been fixed way back in 2003.
-
- When building with MSVC 6 we attempt to detect if PSDK is not being used,
- and if this is the case the build process will fail hard with an error
- message stating that the February 2003 PSDK is required. This is done to
- protect the unsuspecting and avoid PEBKAC issues.
-
- Additionally it might happen that a die hard MSVC hacker still wants to
- build c-ares and libc-ares with MSVC 6 without PSDK installed, even knowing
- that this is a highly discouraged and unsupported build environment. In
- this case the brave of heart will be able to build in such an environment
- with the requisite of defining preprocessor symbol ALLOW_MSVC6_WITHOUT_PSDK
- in lib/config-win32.h and knowing that LDAP and IPv6 support will be missing.

- MSVC 6 IDE
- ----------
-
- A minimal VC++ 6.0 reference workspace (vc6c-ares.dsw) is available with the
- source distribution archive to allow proper building of the two included
- projects, the libc-ares library and the c-ares tool.
-
- 1) Open the vc6c-ares.dsw workspace with MSVC6's IDE.
- 2) Select 'Build' from top menu.
- 3) Select 'Batch Build' from dropdown menu.
- 4) Make sure that the eight project configurations are 'checked'.
- 5) Click on the 'Build' button.
- 6) Once the eight project configurations are built you are done.
-
- Dynamic and static libc-ares libraries are built in debug and release flavours,
- and can be located each one in its own subdirectory, DLL-Debug, DLL-Release,
- LIB-Debug and LIB-Release, all of them below the 'lib' subdirectory.
-
- In the same way four c-ares executables are created, each using its respective
- library. The resulting c-ares executables are located in its own subdirectory,
- DLL-Debug, DLL-Release, LIB-Debug and LIB-Release, below the 'src' subdir.
-
- These reference VC++ 6.0 configurations are generated using the dynamic CRT.
-
- Intentionally, these reference VC++ 6.0 projects and configurations don't use
- third party libraries, such as OpenSSL or Zlib, to allow proper compilation
- and configuration for all new users without further requirements.
-
- If you need something more 'involved' you might adjust them for your own use,
- or explore the world of makefiles described above 'MSVC from command line'.

- Borland C++ compiler
- ---------------------
-
- Ensure that your build environment is properly set up to use the compiler
- and associated tools. PATH environment variable must include the path to
- bin subdirectory of your compiler installation, eg: c:\Borland\BCC55\bin
-
- It is advisable to set environment variable BCCDIR to the base path of
- the compiler installation.
-
- set BCCDIR=c:\Borland\BCC55

- In order to build a plain vanilla version of c-ares and libc-ares run the
- following command from c-ares's root directory:

- variables ZLIB_PATH and OPENSSL_PATH to the base subdirectories of the
- already built zlib and OpenSSL libraries and from c-ares's root directory
- run command:
-
- make borland-ssl-zlib
-
- libc-ares library will be built in 'lib' subdirectory while c-ares tool
- is built in 'src' subdirectory. In order to use libc-ares library it is
- advisable to modify compiler's configuration file bcc32.cfg located
- in c:\Borland\BCC55\bin to reflect the location of libraries include
- paths for example the '-I' line could result in something like:
-
- -I"c:\Borland\BCC55\include;c:\c-ares\include;c:\openssl\inc32"
-
- bcc3.cfg '-L' line could also be modified to reflect the location of
- of libc-ares library resulting for example:
-
- -L"c:\Borland\BCC55\lib;c:\c-ares\lib;c:\openssl\out32"
-
- In order to build sample program 'simple.c' from the docs\examples
- subdirectory run following command from mentioned subdirectory:
-
- bcc32 simple.c libc-ares.lib cw32mt.lib
-
- In order to build sample program simplessl.c an SSL enabled libc-ares
- is required, as well as the OpenSSL libeay32.lib and ssleay32.lib

-
- Stat to get the size of the files is again only safe for stream files &
- fixed record files without implied CC.

- -- My guess is that only allowing access to stream files is the quickest
- way to get around the most issues. Therefore all files need to to be
- checked to be sure they will be stream/lf before processing them. This is

-eCos
-====
- c-ares does not use the eCos build system, so you must first build eCos
- separately, then link c-ares to the resulting eCos library. Here's a sample
- configure line to do so on an x86 Linux box targeting x86:
-
- GCCLIB=`gcc -print-libgcc-file-name` && \
- CFLAGS="-D__ECOS=1 -nostdinc -I$ECOS_INSTALL/include \
- -I`dirname $GCCLIB`/include" \
- LDFLAGS="-nostdlib -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-static \
- -L$ECOS_INSTALL/lib -Ttarget.ld -ltarget" \
- ./configure --host=i386 --disable-shared \
- --without-ssl --without-zlib --disable-manual --disable-ldap
-
- In most cases, eCos users will be using libc-ares from within a custom
- embedded application. Using the standard 'c-ares' executable from
- within eCos means facing the limitation of the standard eCos C
- startup code which does not allow passing arguments in main(). To
- run 'c-ares' from eCos and have it do something useful, you will need
- to either modify the eCos startup code to pass in some arguments, or
- modify the c-ares application itself to retrieve its arguments from
- some location set by the bootloader or hard-code them.
-
- Something like the following patch could be used to hard-code some
- arguments. The MTAB_ENTRY line mounts a RAM disk as the root filesystem
- (without mounting some kind of filesystem, eCos errors out all file
- operations which c-ares does not take to well). The next section synthesizes
- some command-line arguments for c-ares to use, in this case to direct c-ares
- to read further arguments from a file. It then creates that file on the
- RAM disk and places within it a URL to download: a file: URL that
- just happens to point to the configuration file itself. The results
- of running c-ares in this way is the contents of the configuration file
- printed to the console.

-REDUCING SIZE
-=============
- There are a number of configure options that can be used to reduce the
- size of libc-ares for embedded applications where binary size is an
- important factor. First, be sure to set the CFLAGS variable when
- configuring with any relevant compiler optimization flags to reduce the
- size of the binary. For gcc, this would mean at minimum the -Os option,
- and potentially the -march=X and -mdynamic-no-pic options as well, e.g.
-
- ./configure CFLAGS='-Os' ...
-
- Note that newer compilers often produce smaller code than older versions
- due to improved optimization.
-
- Be sure to specify as many --disable- and --without- flags on the configure
- command-line as you can to disable all the libc-ares features that you
- know your application is not going to need. Besides specifying the
- --disable-PROTOCOL flags for all the types of URLs your application
- will not use, here are some other flags that can reduce the size of the
- library:
-
- --disable-ares (disables support for the C-ARES DNS library)
- --disable-cookies (disables support for HTTP cookies)
- --disable-crypto-auth (disables HTTP cryptographic authentication)
- --disable-ipv6 (disables support for IPv6)
- --disable-manual (disables support for the built-in documentation)
- --disable-proxy (disables support for HTTP and SOCKS proxies)
- --disable-verbose (eliminates debugging strings and error code strings)
- --enable-hidden-symbols (eliminates unneeded symbols in the shared library)
- --without-libidn (disables support for the libidn DNS library)
- --without-ssl (disables support for SSL/TLS)
- --without-zlib (disables support for on-the-fly decompression)
-
- The GNU compiler and linker have a number of options that can reduce the
- size of the libc-ares dynamic libraries on some platforms even further.
- Specify them by providing appropriate CFLAGS and LDFLAGS variables on the
- configure command-line:
- CFLAGS="-ffunction-sections -fdata-sections" \
- LDFLAGS="-Wl,-s -Wl,-Bsymbolic -Wl,--gc-sections"
-
- Be sure also to strip debugging symbols from your binaries after
- compiling using 'strip' (or the appropriate variant if cross-compiling).
- If space is really tight, you may be able to remove some unneeded
- sections of the shared library using the -R option to objcopy (e.g. the
- .comment section).
-
- Using these techniques it is possible to create a basic HTTP-only shared
- libc-ares library for i386 Linux platforms that is only 101 KiB in size, and
- an FTP-only library that is 105 KiB in size (as of libc-ares version 7.21.5,
- using gcc 4.4.3).
-
- You may find that statically linking libc-ares to your application will
- result in a lower total size than dynamically linking.
-
- Note that the c-ares test harness can detect the use of some, but not all, of
- the --disable statements suggested above. Use will cause tests relying on
- those features to fail. The test harness can be manually forced to skip
- the relevant tests by specifying certain key words on the runtests.pl
- command line. Following is a list of appropriate key words:

- --disable-cookies !cookies
- --disable-crypto-auth !HTTP\ Digest\ auth !HTTP\ proxy\ Digest\ auth
