In order to build for a Windows platform, you should use WINDOWS_BUILD=1 if the target is Windows but the build environment is Unix-like (eg when cross-compiling, or compiling from an MSYS shell), and WINDOWS=1 if the build environment is a Windows shell (in that case some targets will not be available).
The tests need Perl to be built and run. If you don't have Perl installed, you can skip buiding the tests with::
make no_test

Setting the variable SHARED in your environment will build a shared library in addition to the static library. Setting DEBUG gives you a debug build. You can override CFLAGS and LDFLAGS by setting them in your environment or on the make command line; if you do so, essential parts such as -I will still be preserved. Warning options may be overridden separately using WARNING_CFLAGS.

-----------------------
The build files for Microsoft Visual Studio are generated for Visual Studio 2010.
The solution file 'mbedTLS.sln' contains all the basic projects needed to build the library and all the programs. The files in tests are not generated and compiled, as these need a perl environment as well.

Tests
=====
mbed TLS includes an elaborate test suite in *tests/* that initially requires Perl to generate the tests files (e.g. *test_suite_mpi.c*). These files are generates from a **function file** (e.g. *suites/test_suite_mpi.function*) and a **data file** (e.g. *suites/test_suite_mpi.data*). The **function file** contains the template for each test function. The **data file** contains the test cases, specified as parameters that should be pushed into a template function.

For machines with a Unix shell and OpenSSL (and optionally GnuTLS) installed, additional test scripts are available:
- *tests/ssl-opt.sh* runs integration tests for various TLS options (renegotiation, resumption, etc.) and tests interoperability of these options with other implementations.
- *tests/compat.sh* tests interoperability of every ciphersuite with other implementations.
- *tests/scripts/test-ref-configs.pl* test builds in various reduced configurations.
- *tests/scripts/all.sh* runs a combination of the above tests with various build options (eg ASan).
- *tests/scripts/all.sh* runs a combination of the above tests, plus some more, with various build options (such as ASan, full *config.h*, etc).
