I would like to build mDNSResponder for Windows 10 so that we can distribute it with our Windows software. It's my understanding that the source code should be available here:

https://opensource.apple.com/tarballs/mDNSResponder/

I've download the majority of the tarballs and found that none of the recent releases include the mDNSWindows" directory, which is referenced by the included Visual Studio solution. I've emailed opensource @ apple.com multiple times asking how I can obtain the missing sources but haven't received a response.

Does anyone know why the Windows sources are missing from the tarballs or how to obtain them?

Thanks, Michael

I have also noticed the mDNSWindows directory missing. Has support for Windows been dropped for mDNSResponder? The last tarball with the mDNSWindows directory was v878.270.2.

Just FYI, as of Feb 2022, the mDNSWindows directory is back. So, mDNSResponder-1556.60.9 has it again. See the repository here:
