This document describes how to compile, build and install curl and libcurl\r
from sources using the Visual C++ build tool. To build with VC++, you will\r
nmake /f Makefile.vc mode=<static or dll> <options>\r
\r
where <options> is one or many of:\r
- VC=<6,7,8,9,10,11,12,14> - VC versions\r
+ VC=<6,7,8,9,10,11,12> - VC versions\r
WITH_DEVEL=<path> - Paths for the development files (SSL, zlib, etc.)\r
Defaults to sibbling directory deps: ../deps\r
Libraries can be fetched at http://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/deps/\r
GEN_PDB=<yes or no> - Generate Program Database (debug symbols for release build)\r
DEBUG=<yes or no> - Debug builds\r
MACHINE=<x86 or x64> - Target architecture (default is x86)\r
-\r
-Static linking of Microsoft's C RunTime (CRT):\r
-==============================================\r
-If you are using mode=static nmake will create and link to the static build of\r
-libcurl but *not* the static CRT. If you must you can force nmake to link in\r
-the static CRT by passing RTLIBCFG=static. Typically you shouldn't use that\r
-option, and nmake will default to the DLL CRT. RTLIBCFG is rarely used and\r
-therefore rarely tested. When passing RTLIBCFG for a configuration that was\r
-already built but not with that option, or if the option was specified\r
-differently, you must destroy the build directory containing the configuration\r
-so that nmake can build it from scratch.\r
-\r
-Legacy Windows and SSL\r
-======================\r
-When you build curl using the build files in this directory the default SSL\r
-backend will be WinSSL (Windows SSPI, more specifically Schannel), the native\r
-SSL library that comes with the Windows OS. WinSSL in Windows <= XP is not able\r
-to connect to servers that no longer support the legacy handshakes and\r
-algorithms used by those versions. If you will be using curl in one of those\r
-earlier versions of Windows you should choose another SSL backend like OpenSSL.\r
