Hello,

I’m new to curllib and cannot get the libraries to work with Visual C++ v11.0. I downloaded v7.36 (32-bit) a couple of months ago and compiled it to a .lib file (note I wasn’t able to create a .dll). When I put the .lib file into my library path and called a couple of curllib functions the linker complained and could not find these functions to execute. I confirmed this by creating dummy functions with same name and parameters in my code.

I’m running Windows 7 Home Edition SP1. If possible, could someone send me the .lib and .dll files of either the 7.36 build or later build? I will download the headers from the site if need be.



How did you compile the .lib? Was it from within Visual Studio, or using a makefile? How are you linking your application? What are the error messages?

I use Visual C++ 12.0 and ended up creating my own makefile to build a .lib, to match the conventions used in the rest of my code base. I haven't had any problems linking to it. It is possible that the curl-supplied makefile is out of date; using multiple FOSS libraries in my code, I have found that Windows build support tends to lag (especially for any project that uses configure scripts).
