在MSVS2010中使用静态链接库（MSVS2008）

Question

Will i be able to use a static linked library compiled under MS Visual Studio 2008 in MS Visual Studio 2010 projects without to rebuild/recompile it?

I'm talking about the OpenSSL library, which is only available for VS2008 in a precompiled binary package.

Answer 1

Since OpenSSL itself is only C, your resulting executable will require both VS 2008 (MSVCR90) and VS 2010 run time libraries, but it should work and be usable. I'd suggest recompiling the OpenSSL with VS 2010 as well.
