Summary: Cannot compile 7.15.1 using VS 6.0 SP6

Initial Comment:
Compilation of version 7.15.1 fails on Windows WP
using Visual Studio 6.0 SP6.

This is due to the changes in ftp.c and tftp.c in
order to handle IPV6. I altered sockaddr.h in order
to make the build succeed, but I am not sure that
this will be correct in all cases.

My version of sockaddr.h will be loaded.

Ok, I consider this problem an environment problem and
closing this report.

Should anything else pop up, we can always re-open.

If you are using Visual Studio 6.0 SP6 you should also be
using Microsoft's Platform SDK. _Many_ header files are
updated, corrected and modified from the ones shiped with
VS 6.0.

In your particular case, visual studio 6.0 winsock2.h
lacks the definition for struct sockaddr_storage which is
correctly declared in winsock2.h from Microsoft Platform
SDK - February 2003 Edition.

In any case if you don't wish to use the header files from
Platform SDK, you can comment out from config-win32.h the
line that defines HAVE_STRUCT_SOCKADDR_STORAGE. But you
may encounter other problems for not having updated header
files.
