This page describes the process for building the Windows Native Connector for Windows. This is the native part of the APR/Native connector.   

These instructions assume that you have configured the common build environment.

Building

While tcnative itself needs to be built last, we unpack it first because there are some patches in the tcnative source distribution that will need to be applied to both APR and OpenSSL. Obtain the tcnative source from one of:

E.g.: To build the latest 2.0.x development build from main

 c:
 cd \
 git clone https://github.com/apache/tomcat-native tomcat-native-2.0.x
 cd tomcat-native-2.0.x\native\srclib\apr


Unpack APR 1.7.4 source distribution in this directory (C:\tomcat-native-2.0.x\native\srclib\apr).    

Note: If you build the 1.2.x branch you will need to some patches. The patches should apply but depending on exactly which revision you are working with you may need to skip parts of the patch and/or apply an offset.

git apply apr-enable-ipv6.patch
git apply win-ipv6.patch

Then build:

 c:\cmsc\setenv.bat x86 
 nmake -f NMAKEmakefile BUILD_CPU=x86 APR_DECLARE_STATIC=1
 
 c:\cmsc\setenv.bat x64
 nmake -f NMAKEmakefile BUILD_CPU=x64 APR_DECLARE_STATIC=1
 
 cd ..\openssl

OpenSSL 3.0.x and later

Unpack the OpenSSL 3.0.x source distribution in this directory (C:\tomcat-native-2.0.x\native\srclib\openssl).

Apply openssl-msvcrt-3.0.x.patch. The patch should apply cleanly to the current recommended OpenSSL version. If you use a different version you may need to skip and/or use an offset to get the patch to apply.

 c:\cmsc\setenv.bat x86
 perl Configure no-shared VC-WIN32
 nmake
 mkdir out32-x86
 copy libssl.lib out32-x86\
 copy libcrypto.lib out32-x86\
 copy apps\openssl.exe out32-x86\
 
 nmake clean

 c:\cmsc\setenv.bat x64
 perl Configure no-shared VC-WIN64A
 nmake
 mkdir out32-x64
 copy libssl.lib out32-x64\
 copy libcrypto.lib out32-x64\
 copy apps\openssl.exe out32-x64\

Keeping the various libraries in versioned directories saves having to rebuild them next time if the version remains unchanged.

The Windows binary distributions may then be found in C:\tomcat-native-2.0.x\native\    

These need to be signed and hashed before uploading for the release vote.    

Beware of typos in the name and contents of hash files for OCSP binaries ("ocsp" vs "oscp"). Such typos happened.    

A correct example:
