I wanted to use libcurl with mingw; but for some reason the mingw binary is missing off the download page (use the wizard, the file isn't found). Also I searched quickly and saw that a number of people had problems with libcurl 'not working' under mingw. Here is how I got it to work on mingw using the MSVC version -- it's very simple so I.

Related: how to install curl and libcurl Installing Binary Packages Lots of people download binary distributions of curl and libcurl. This document does not describe how to install curl or libcurl using such a binary package.
This document describes how to compile, build and install curl and libcurl from source code. Building from git If you get your code off a git repository instead of a release tarball, see the GIT-INFO file in the root directory for specific instructions on how to proceed.
Unix A normal Unix installation is made in three or four steps (after you've unpacked the source archive):./configure make make test (optional) make install You probably need to be root when doing the last command. Get a full listing of all available configure options by invoking it like:./configure -help If you want to install curl in a different file hierarchy than /usr/local, specify that when running configure:./configure -prefix=/path/to/curl/tree If you have write permission in that directory, you can do 'make install' without being root. An example of this would be to make a local install in your own home directory:./configure -prefix=$HOME make make install The configure script always tries to find a working SSL library unless explicitly told not to.
