Hi Rainer,

Thanks for the quick response! A couple more questions: if we grab the
code for APR, OpenSSL and tcnative, and compile them (yes, we are on
Windows), what will we get? Several dll's? And if so, do we just replace
the tcnative-1.dll with these dll's or is there some other configuration
that is necessary?

Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim,

APR and OpenSSL are maintained by other projects (apr.apache.org resp.
www.openssl.org).

The tcnative source can be obtained from

http://www.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-connectors/native/

The download contain a dsp file for Visual Studio (supposing you are
talking about WIN platform because you mentioned DLL), and a configure
script for Unix/Linux. The configure script of the most recent version
is 1.1.12 is broken (see mail on this list today), but the library code
is fine.

Regards,

Rainer
