Pelles-C and CURL

[alderman]

Hello, Pelles friends

1- Can CURL be used in Pelles-C
2- Is there a CURL package for Pelles-C
3- How to convert if needed
4- How to add CURL to Pelles-C

• I have not tested, but I don't see any reason that should prevent the use of the MSVC precompiled version
• Not yet

For points 3 & 4 I'm not sure to have understood what you mean.

There are two libs with the same name, I mean this:
https://curl.haxx.se/

I found a curl built for LccWin32:

(At the bottom) old but it may get well.

This is a sample of use of a precompiled libcurl.
I compiled url2file demo using Stefan Kanthak libraries that you can download from here.
I included the relevant libraries in the example.
Note that the demo execute in the library folder so the executable can find the DLL.

I'll try to create a PellesC port when I'll have time

I'll look at it. Thanks!
Interesting that you are thinking of port it to PellesC, I look forward to it.

I wasn't aware that Curl was already tuned for PellesC! 
Anyway I produced a port, 32/64bits, availabe on github.
The sample is compiled with Windows Security Support Provider Interface (SSPI).

Awesome!
How do I install it in Pelles C?

How do I install it in Pelles C?

Go on github clicking this link.
There you can download a zip of the project, or clone it on your computer.
To install it on your system you have to copy lib, dll and header files in the correct directories:

• Header files:
  Headers are in the directory 'include\Curl'.
  Copy the whole subdirectory 'Curl' under '$(PellesCDir)\Include'
  
• 32bits development:
  All 32 bits binaries are under the directory 'X86'.
  
  • 32 bits libraries:
    Copy all library files '*.lib' from 'X86' to '$(PellesCDir)\Lib\Win'
    
  • 32bits DLL:
    Copy Dll's from 'X86' to '$(SystemRoot)\SysWOW64' (that normally is "C:\Windows\SysWOW64").
    
• 64bits development:
  All 64 bits binaries are under the directory 'X64'.
  
  • 64 bits libraries:
    Copy all library files '*.lib' from 'X64' to '$(PellesCDir)\Lib\Win64'
    
  • 64bits DLL:
    Copy Dll's from 'X64' to '$(SystemRoot)\System32' (that normally is "C:\Windows\System32").
    
• Executables:
  Depending on your OS/preferences, copy the 32bits executables from 'X86' directory, or the 64bits executables from 'X64' directory.
  Copy them to a directory listed in the system '$(PATH)' if you want have them available from command line.

THANKS!!
You saved hours of my time!
