The -way to proceed is mainly divided in two different ways: the unix way or the -windows way. - -If you're using Windows (95, 98, NT) or OS/2, you should continue reading from -the Win32 header below. All other systems should be capable of being installed -as described in the the UNIX header. - -PORTS -===== - Just to show off, this is a probably incomplete list of known hardware and - operating systems that curl has been compiled for: - - - Ultrix - - SINIX-Z v5 - Alpha DEC OSF 4 - HP-PA HP-UX 10.X 11.X - MIPS IRIX 6.2, 6.5 - Power AIX 4.2, 4.3.1 - PowerPC Darwin 1.0 - PowerPC Mac OS X - Sparc Solaris 2.4, 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.6, 7 - Sparc SunOS 4.1.* - i386 BeOS - i386 FreeBSD - i386 Linux 1.3, 2.0, 2.2 - i386 NetBSD - i386 OS/2 - i386 OpenBSD - i386 Solaris 2.7 - i386 Windows 95, 98, NT - m68k AmigaOS 3 - m68k OpenBSD - -UNIX -==== - - The configure script *always* tries to find a working SSL library unless - explicitly told not to. If you have OpenSSL installed in the default - search path for your compiler/linker, you don't need to do anything - special. - - If you have OpenSSL installed in /usr/local/ssl, you can run configure - like: - - ./configure --with-ssl - - If you have OpenSSL installed somewhere else (for example, /opt/OpenSSL,) - you can run configure like this: - - ./configure --with-ssl=/opt/OpenSSL - - If you insist on forcing a build *without* SSL support, even though you may - have it installed in your system, you can run configure like this: - - ./configure --without-ssl - - If you have OpenSSL installed, but with the libraries in one place and the - header files somewhere else, you'll have to set the LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS - environment variables prior to running configure. Something like this - should work: - - (with the Bourne shell and its clones): - - CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/ssl/include" LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/ssl/lib" \ - ./configure - - (with csh, tcsh and their clones): - - env CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/ssl/include" LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/ssl/lib" \ - ./configure - - If your SSL library was compiled with rsaref (usually for use in - the United States), you may also need to set: - - LIBS=-lRSAglue -lrsaref - (from Doug Kaufman <dkaufman@rahul.net>) - - Without SSL support, just run: - - ./configure - - Then run: - - make - - Use the executable `curl` in src/ directory. - - 'make install' copies the curl file to /usr/local/bin/ (or $prefix/bin - if you used the --prefix option to configure) and copies the curl.1 - man page to a suitable place too. - - KNOWN PROBLEMS - - If you happen to have autoconf installed, but a version older than - 2.12 you will get into trouble. Then you can still build curl by - issuing these commands: (from Ralph Beckmann <rabe@uni-paderborn.de>) - - ./configure [...] - cd lib; make; cd .. - cd src; make; cd .. - cp src/curl elsewhere/bin/ - - OPTIONS - - Remember, to force configure to use the standard cc compiler if both - cc and gcc are present, run configure like - - CC=cc ./configure - or - env Cc=cc ./configure - - -Win32 -===== - - Without SSL: - - MingW32 (GCC-2.95) style - ------------------------ - Run the 'mingw32.bat' file to get the proper environment variables - set, then run 'make -f Makefile.m32' in the lib/ dir and then - 'make -f Makefile.m32' in the src/ dir. - - If you have any problems linking libraries or finding header files, - be sure to look at the provided "Makefile.m32" files for the proper - paths, and adjust as necessary. - - Cygwin style - ------------ - Almost identical to the unix installation. Run the configure script - in the curl root with 'sh configure'. Make sure you have the sh - executable in /bin/ or you'll see the configure fail towards the - end. - - Run 'make' - - Microsoft command line style - ---------------------------- - Run the 'vcvars32.bat' file to get the proper environment variables - set, then run 'nmake -f Makefile.vc6' in the lib/ dir and then - 'nmake -f Makefile.vc6' in the src/ dir. - - IDE-style - ------------------------- - If you use VC++, Borland or similar compilers. Include all lib source - files in a static lib "project" (all .c and .h files that is). - (you should name it libcurl or similar) - - Make the sources in the src/ drawer be a "win32 console application" - project. Name it curl. - - With VC++, add 'wsock32.lib' to the link libs when you build curl! - Borland seems to do that itself magically. Of course you have to - make sure it links with the libcurl too! - - For VC++ 6, there's an included Makefile.vc6 that should be possible - to use out-of-the-box. - - Microsoft note: add /Zm200 to the compiler options, as the hugehelp.c - won't compile otherwise due to "too long puts string" or something - like that! - - - With SSL: - - MingW32 (GCC-2.95) style - ------------------------ - Run the 'mingw32.bat' file to get the proper environment variables - set, then run 'make -f Makefile.m32 SSL=1' in the lib/ dir and then - 'make -f Makefile.m32 SSL=1' in the src/ dir. - - If you have any problems linking libraries or finding header files, - be sure to look at the provided "Makefile.m32" files for the proper - paths, and adjust as necessary. - - Cygwin style - ------------ - - Haven't done, nor got any reports on how to do. It should although be - identical to the unix setup for the same purpose. See above. - - Microsoft command line style - ---------------------------- - Run the 'vcvars32.bat' file to get the proper environment variables - set, then run 'nmake -f Makefile.vc6 release-ssl' in the lib/ dir and - then 'nmake -f Makefile.vc6' in the src/ dir. - - Microsoft / Borland style - ------------------------- - If you have OpenSSL, and want curl to take advantage of it, edit your - project properties to use the SSL include path, link with the SSL libs - and define the USE_SSLEAY symbol. - - -IBM OS/2 -======== - - Building under OS/2 is not much different from building under unix. - You need: - - - emx 0.9d - - GNU make - - GNU patch - - ksh - - GNU bison - - GNU file utilities - - GNU sed - - autoconf 2.13 - - If you want to build with OpenSSL or OpenLDAP support, you'll need to - download those libraries, too. Dirk Ohme has done some work to port SSL - libraries under OS/2, but it looks like he doesn't care about emx. You'll - find his patches on: http://come.to/Dirk.Ohme - - If during the linking you get an error about _errno being an undefined - symbol referenced from the text segment, you need to add -D__ST_MT_ERRNO__ - in your definitions. - - If everything seems to work fine but there's no curl.exe, you need to add - -Zexe to your linker flags. - - If you're getting huge binaries, probably your makefiles have the -g in - CFLAGS. - -OpenSSL -======= - - You'll find OpenSSL information at: - - http://www.openssl.org - - -MingW32/Cygwin -============== - - You'll find MingW32 and Cygwin information at: - - http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/index.html - -OpenLDAP -======== - - You'll find OpenLDAP information at: - - http://www.openldap.org - - You need to install it with shared libraries, which is enabled when running - the ldap configure script with "--enable-shared". With my linux 2.0.36 - kernel I also had to disable using threads (with --without-threads), - because the configure script couldn't figure out my system. |
