Gnugk, openh323, and ptlib versions

When compiling openh323 and ptlib, we often encounter version mismatch issues. The following describes the version ing relationship:

Compiling the GNU keeper I wocould suggest to compile gnugk with either Openh323 Atlas: Openh323 1.18.0 for UNIX and pwlib 1.10.3 for Unix Openh323 1.18.0 for Windows and pwlib 1.10.3 for Windows Or H323plus 1.20: Www.h323plus.org/source/ You also need the OpenSSL libs and the libraries for your database backend (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Firebird ). On most Unix distributions you shoshould install the 'openssl-devel' package to have OpenSSL libraries and headers available. for Windows, install Win32 OpenSSL (not the 'light 'version) and add the lib and include path to your Visual Studio settings.   UNIX Gnugk 2.2.x on UNIX can be configured with "./configure". Please type "./configure -- Help" for details. Type "make debug" or "make Opt" to compile. GCC 3.x,GCC 4.1.xAndGCC 4.2.xWork fine for compiling gnugk. (GCC 2.95.x is too old .)   Windows On Windows just build the supported DEDVisual Studio. NET (Visual C ++ 7.0) Project GK. slnOrVisual c ++ 2005 Express project gk_2005.slnOrVisual maxcompute 2008 Express project gk_2008.sln. Visual C ++ 6.0 and 5.0 are no longer supported. The auto-config (./configure) feature is currently not available on windows and the config options are set with has_xxx defines in the project file.   "Known good" combinations The GNU keeper depends on the openh323 library along with the underlying pwlib and some other libraries. Some combinations produce strange results, so here are a few notes about known issues and known good combinations.
