Windows MSVC Static Build Guide

Prerequisites

• Perl (Try ActivePerl or Strawberry Perl)
• Latest Qt sources (get through the maintenance tool here)
• Latest MSVC++ (get through Visual Studio Installer)

OpenSSL

Get OpenSSL

To start, get the latest stable OpenSSL source through git

git clone https://github.com/openssl/openssl.git

And switch to the latest stable branch (as of the time of writing, it is OpenSSL_1_1_0-stable)

git checkout <latest stable branch>

Configure OpenSSL

Configure OpenSSL (make sure you have perl installed and in path)

64-bit: perl Configure VC-WIN64A no-shared threads

32-bit: perl Configure VC-WIN32 no-shared threads

Build OpenSSL
