Re: Unable to build dll version of curl 7.36.0 on Windows

You are right. I can successfully build the dll from the daily snapshot.
But I'm not sure if it's all right to compile src/tool_cb_rea.c without having defined BUILDING_WARNLESS_C, while we have it defined when compiling lib/warnless.c. Because src/tool_cb_rea.c includes lib/warnless.h (through curlx.h), which doesn't define it, but uses the read() function, inside tool_read_cb(). On the other hand, lib/warnless.c defines it for itself. BUILDING_WARNLESS_C only really matters when compiling warnless.h, the only one that contains the preprocessor directives that test BUILDING_WARNLESS_C and redefine functions.
