"Couldn't apply options" on a minimal test case console app

Running a console application with libssh doesn't ssh_connect, rather returns "Couldn't apply options" - which isn't very informative.

Context

I tried to run the following code:

int main()
{
  ssh_session my_ssh_session = ssh_new();
  if (my_ssh_session == NULL)
    return -1;

  int verbosity = SSH_LOG_PROTOCOL;
  int port = 22;

  int rc = ssh_options_set(my_ssh_session, SSH_OPTIONS_HOST, "192.168.15.1");
  rc = ssh_options_set(my_ssh_session, SSH_OPTIONS_LOG_VERBOSITY, &verbosity);
  rc = ssh_options_set(my_ssh_session, SSH_OPTIONS_PORT, &port);

  rc = ssh_connect(my_ssh_session);
  if (rc != SSH_OK)
  {
    fprintf(stderr, "Error connecting to localhost: %s\n",
      ssh_get_error(my_ssh_session));
    exit(-1);
  }

  ssh_free(my_ssh_session);

  return 0;
}

But it returns "Couldn't apply options" error to ssh_connect(), all the ssh_options_set work (return a value of 0)

Expected Behavior

Connect to the SSH server

Actual Behavior

Returns an error

Steps to Reproduce

Take the above code
Compile it as a Console Application, x86, Multibyte (I also tried Unicode)
Run

Have you tried other libssh binaries such as the one from vcpkg?
If its an issue with the binaries provided here then i can help but if its an issue with libssh itself then you should try the libssh upstream developers instead.

Hi It's a good idea and apparently from vcpkg it works without any problems (same exact code) I am unable to find out the root cause in ShiftMediaProject that causes it

There is new 0.9.0 version of libssh now available. See if that fixes your issues.
