+VxWorks
+========
+ Build for VxWorks is performed using cross compilation.
+ That means you build on Windows machine using VxWorks tools and
+ run the built image on the VxWorks device.
+
+ To build libcurl for VxWorks you need:
+
+ - CYGWIN (free, http://cygwin.com/)
+ - Wind River Workbench (commercial)
+
+ If you have CYGWIN and Workbench installed on you machine
+ follow after next steps:
+
+ 1. Open the Command Prompt window and change directory ('cd')
+ to the libcurl 'lib' folder.
+ 2. Add CYGWIN 'bin' folder to the PATH environment variable.
+ For example, type 'set PATH=C:/embedded/cygwin/bin;%PATH%'.
+ 3. Adjust environment variables defined in 'Environment' section
+ of the Makefile.vxworks file to point to your software folders.
+ 4. Build the libcurl by typing 'make -f ./Makefile.vxworks'
+
+ As a result the libcurl.a library should be created in the 'lib' folder.
+ To clean the build results type 'make -f ./Makefile.vxworks clean'.
