Hi, I'm attempting to build ncat statically for Windows using VS2022 and I've run into the following issues: * applink.c missing from static build of openssl 3.0.5 - fixed by downloading https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/ms/applink.c into the correct path * vcxproj/sln file not set up to build ncat for x64 - fixed by fiddling with the solution configuration. I'm not sure how this was generated but I could provide a patch. Unfortunately Visual Studio toggles these by putting GUIDs everywhere in the file so it won't be pretty. The current sticking point * c:gitnmapncatncat_ssl.c(211,40): error C2440: '=': cannot convert from 'const void *' to 'const char *' [c:gitn mapncatncat.vcxproj] Which the line of code is https://github.com/nmap/nmap/blob/master/ncat/ncat_ssl.c#L211, dot = memchr(p, '.', remaining); Forgive the use of the GitHub mirror, it was easier to find this way. I am probably making some kind of simple mistake - I'm not a C coder and I don't understand how to fix this. If it's simple to do, I'll test it out and update your wiki page, it certainly should be a lot simpler to build ncat with vcpkg these days.
