Hello,
Mbed TLS no longer supports Visual Studio 2010. The minimum version of Visual Studio is now 2013. (2012 may or may not work, I'm not aware that anyone has checked and we don't promise anything about it.)
Generally speaking, Mbed TLS now assumes a C99 compiler (but of course not the full hosted library). We make some accommodations for incomplete C99 support, but VS2010 has almost no C99 support, so Mbed TLS can't work with it.
We intend to keep supporting VS2013 for the whole lifetime of the long-term support branch 2.28. Requirements may change on the development branch so that the next long-term support branch of Mbed TLS doesn't have to extend past the end of support a supported Visual Studio version.
Best regards,
