[Cryptography Team] Suggestions for C++ or DLL code

Hello all,
I'm currently working on a TLS / SSL implementation and on windows I am
planning to support the Certificate Store that is built in. This requires
me to use the CryptoAPI dlls. The code is complex and it uses a number of
header files and many steps. I built some C++ code that does what I'm
looking for so now I would like to incorporate this into Squeak.
I'd assumed that FFI was like DDL/C connect in VW but that's not what I'm
seeing. So my question is: What is the best way to get this working?
Should I hack away at FFI and support the api directly, and is that even
possible? Should I create DLL's to call and use them with FFI, or should I
compile some sort of plugins? My preference would be to call the api
directly without having to create dll's, duplicating my C++ code in
Smalltalk if possible.
Some direction and comparisons of different options would be very helpful.
Thank you for your help!
