How To Compile
|
|
|
|
Curl has been compiled and built on numerous different operating systems. 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 or OS/2 headers further down. All other systems should be capable of
|
|
being installed as described below.
|
|
|
|
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:
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
To install curl on your system, run
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
This will copy curl to /usr/local/bin/ (or $prefix/bin if you used the
|
|
--prefix option to configure) and it copies the man pages, the lib and the
|
|
include files to suitable places.
|
|
|
|
To make sure everything runs as supposed, run the test suite:
|
|
|
|
make test
|
|
|
|
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)
|
|
|
|
./configure [...]
|
|
cd lib; make; cd ..
|
|
cd src; make; cd ..
|
|
cp src/curl elsewhere/bin/
|
|
|
|
As suggested by David West, you can make a faked version of autoconf and
|
|
autoheader:
|
|
|
|
----start of autoconf----
|
|
#!/bin/bash
|
|
#fake autoconf for building curl
|
|
if [ "$1" = "--version" ] then
|
|
echo "Autoconf version 2.13"
|
|
fi
|
|
----end of autoconf----
|
|
|
|
Then make autoheader a symbolic link to the same script and make sure
|
|
they're executable and set to appear in the path *BEFORE* the actual (but
|
|
obsolete) autoconf and autoheader scripts.
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
To force a static library compile, disable the shared library creation
|
|
by running configure like:
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-shared
|
|
|
|
To tell the configure script to skip searching for thread-safe functions,
|
|
add an option like:
|
|
|
|
./configure --disable-thread
|
|
|
|
To build curl with kerberos4 support enabled, curl requires the krb4 libs
|
|
and headers installed. You can then use a set of options to tell
|
|
configure where those are:
|
|
|
|
--with-krb4-includes[=DIR] Specify location of kerberos4 headers
|
|
--with-krb4-libs[=DIR] Specify location of kerberos4 libs
|
|
--with-krb4[=DIR] where to look for Kerberos4
|
|
|
|
In most cases, /usr/athena is the install prefix and then it works with
|
|
|
|
./configure --with-krb4=/usr/athena
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The vcvars32.bat file is part of the Microsoft development environment.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The vcvars32.bat file is part of the Microsoft development environment.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|

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.
