we don't support this. However you should start by e.g. using cmake to get a 
build system which can compile it on Windows. The only dependency of talloc is 
libc (standard C memory allocator). However there my be some things which 
might not work on Windows like constructions and you need to use DLLMain() for 
that.

If you're looking for cmake examples and constructor support, take a look at:

https://git.cryptomilk.org/projects/cmocka.git (good cmake example)

https://git.libssh.org/projects/libssh.git (DllMain for constructor and 
destructor)
