I have an exe that will look for a file on the server, and download the latest exe. All this is implemented in tcl on a linux machine. Since this communication is secure, I have used http and tls libraries of tcl. Now I have to run the same exe on a windows machine. So I have changed the runtime environment( when creating an exe) to windows ,inorder for the exe to work. But TLS library of tcl has a .so file and that .so file gives an error saying "cannot execute libtls.so" I know I have to create a dll file inorder fr the tls to run, My questions are:
a) Are there dll for tls library that can run on windows(for tcl)?
b) Is there a simpler way to create a dll for a tcl code/package ?
I have reffered this blog (https://www.patthoyts.tk/tclkit/building-basekits.html) but I found it a little complex.

perhaps the answer to your question is in this FAQ? http://www.tcl.tk/faq/tclwin.htm#sec-12-6

couldn't read file "C:/users/.../twapi.tcl" : no such file or directory found while executing :source [file join [twapi::Twapi_GetInstallDir]twai.tcl]".
I think this error is generated from the base dll that comes with the package – Aditya Mayank Shankar – 2017-10-18T16:05:05.130
