Thanks for the suggestion. I was eventually able to get the library built,
but its not working quite right.

I tried to send a file with sample code from
http://www.libssh2.org/examples/sftp_write.html.

This code:

/* Request a file via SFTP */
sftp_handle =
libssh2_sftp_open(sftp_session, sftppath,

LIBSSH2_FXF_WRITE | LIBSSH2_FXF_CREAT | LIBSSH2_FXF_TRUNC,
LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IRUSR | LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IWUSR |
LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IRGRP | LIBSSH2_SFTP_S_IROTH);

if (!sftp_handle) {
fprintf(stderr, "Unable to open file with SFTP\n");
char *error;
int errmsg_len, want_buf=1;
libssh2_session_last_error(session, &error, &errmsg_len, want_buf);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", error);
goto shutdown;
}

produces this error:

libssh2_sftp_init()!
libssh2_sftp_open()!
Unable to open file with SFTP
Failed opening remote file
all done

This is not a very informative message, and I don't know what to do with
it. I am trying to transfer from a Windows 10 machine to a Raspberry Pi
running Ubuntu Linux. There doesn't seem to be any problem with the server,
because I can transfer to the server from the same Windows machine using
WinSCP. There don't seem to be any problems with directory permissions,
etc.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
