The issues on the libmosquitto are minimal. - it seems to target Windows Vista and that's hardcoded at least here https://bitbucket.org/oojah/mosquitto/src/4deedcb49ff50be94166701f21e5c79ff7667d5b/lib/time_mosq.c?at=default#cl-36 PHP 5.4 is the last one supporting WinXP actually, so I've changed it to #define _WIN32_WINNT _WIN32_WINNT_WINXP Still I'm not sure the maintainers didn't do that on purpose for some other features (or just because winxp has reached its EOL). - for the vc9 support there are a couple of macros failing, EPROTO and EINGROGRESS. I've solved it defining this in mosquitto.c and net_mosq.c #define EINPROGRESS WSAEINPROGRESS # define EPROTO -15 - a general issue is the cmake script. libmosquitto depends on openssl, but also on pthreads and optionally c-ares. While the path to the openssl bins is configurable, the others are hardcoded. That's not of a big issue as one can hack those paths manually, IMHO it should be configurable like the openssl dep. Here are the corresponding places https://bitbucket.org/oojah/mosquitto/src/4deedcb49ff50be94166701f21e5c79ff7667d5b/lib/CMakeLists.txt?at=default#cl-7 https://bitbucket.org/oojah/mosquitto/src/4deedcb49ff50be94166701f21e5c79ff7667d5b/lib/CMakeLists.txt?at=default#cl-54 If you need a snapshot before the new release, please just ping.
