All,

This isn't going to work for 3.5.x. We need to use a newer compiler than the one packaged with Mladen's custom Microsoft compiler bundle.

I have been meaning to look at updating the Tomcat Native builds so we can use a standard Visual Studio installation. I guess it is time to spend some time looking at that.

Do it make sense to move to cmake where we could support several version of  Visual Studio? Something like:
cmake -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" (well I have a VM ready for that).

The updated build process should support any current version of Visual Studio (without creating a dependency on the Visual Studio Runtime).

All,

The last Tomcat Native releases were in July 2024. The Windows binaries were built with 3.0.14.

There are some low severity CVEs in 3.0.14 that we don't believe apply to Tomcat's usage of OpenSSL but that may trigger a security scanner.

There is a new OpenSSL LTS branch, 3.5.x, that includes support for Post Quantum Cryptography.

I'd like to get a new round of Tomcat Native releases made where the Windows binaries are built with 3.5.x.

My question is does this need a version bump? I'm thinking not as I'm not planning on changing the minimum OpenSSL version and these are convenience binaries.

Any objections?

Mark
