How To Compile
Curl has been compiled and built on numerous different operating systems. The
way to proceed is mainly devided 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 un 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:
Sparc Solaris 2.4, 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.6, 7
Sparc SunOS 4.1.*
i386 Linux 1.3, 2.0, 2.2
MIPS IRIX
HP-PA HP-UX
PowerPC Mac OS X
- Ultrix
i386 OpenBSD
m68k OpenBSD
i386 Windows 95, 98, NT
i386 OS/2
m68k AmigaOS 3
UNIX
====
The configure script *always* tries to find a working SSL library unless
explicitely told not to. If you have SSLeay or OpenSSL installed in the
default search path for your compiler/linker, you don't need to do anything
special.
If you have SSLeay or OpenSSL installed in /usr/local/ssl, you can
run configure like so:
./configure --with-ssl
If you have SSLeay or 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 SSLeay or 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/SSLeay, 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.
OpenSSL/SSLeay
==============
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.
