(1:56:14 PM) Retep998: I'd still really like a calling convention for stdcall methods because they aren't the same as stdcall functions
(1:56:21 PM) Retep998: who should I talk to about getting something like that?
(2:02:40 PM) jroelofs: Retep998: rnk maybe?
rnk rnsanchez 
(2:03:27 PM) Retep998: rnk: Someone said I should talk to you about stdcall calling conventions
(2:04:49 PM) jroelofs: it might help to describe what you think is different between the two
(2:05:21 PM) Retep998: How values are returned from stdcall functions differs from stdcall methods
(2:05:40 PM) Retep998: Like if I return a struct containing two 32-bit integers
(2:06:04 PM) Retep998: fn foo(self) -> ThatType
(2:06:39 PM) Retep998: the stdcall calling convention currently does the function style, but to get the method style I have to use a hacky workaround to get it right

Installing OpenSSL for Rust on Windows with MSVC

When using MSVC Rust on Windows, everything typically works out of the box, up until you decide to do some web stuff with hyper. Suddenly a new dependency, openssl, is failing to build and you have no idea how to fix it. Fortunately this guide is here to save you!

WARNING: OpenSSL 1.1 support was only added in openssl-sys = "0.9". Older versions only support up to OpenSSL 1.0.2. rust-openssl/rust-openssl#452

1. First you will need to download and install OpenSSL itself. You can download an installer from http://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html. In particular you want the newest version and not the light version. Make sure it matches the version of Rust you have, if you're using x86_64-pc-windows-msvc you will want Win64, and if you're using i9686-pc-windows-msvc you will want Win32. For the purpose of example I have installed Win64 OpenSSL v1.0.2h.
2. If all went well you should now have OpenSSL installed somewh
