This project provides some prebuilt cURL configuration scripts for easy building on various platforms. It contains as a submodule, toonetown/curl git project.

You can check this directory out in any location on your computer, but the default location that the build.sh script looks for is as a parent directory to where you check out the toonetown/curl git project. By default, this project contains a submodule of the toonetown/curl git project in the correct location.

The following are supported to build the cURL project:

To build on macOS:

• macOS 10.13 (High Sierra)

• Xcode 9.1 (From Mac App Store)

  • Run Xcode and accept all first-run prompts

• Build dependencies

  • Autoconf
  • Automake
  • Libtool

To build for Android:

• macOS requirements above

• Android NDK r15c

  • You must set the environment variable ANDROID_NDK_HOME to point to your NDK installation

The build.sh script accepts a "bootstrap" argument which will install the dependencies for building from Homebrew. It can be run multiple times safely.

./build.sh bootstrap

If you installed autoconf from homebrew, it may conflict with the autoconf213 package and not be linked. If this has happened, you will want to run brew link --overwrite autoconf

You can build the libraries using the build.sh script:

./build.sh [/path/to/curl-dist] <plat.arch|plat|'bootstrap'|'clean'>

Run ./build.sh itself to see details on its options.

You can modify the execution of the scripts by setting various environment variables. See the script sources for lists of these variables.

You can link the output of the libraries with OpenSSL that has been built using the toonetown/build-openssl project. To do this, set the OPENSSL_TARGET environment variable to point to the directory to the output (or unzipped distribution) of the build-openssl project before running build.sh

By default iOS and macOS will link using the --with-darwinssl flag. By default Android will fail to compile unless OPENSSL_TARGET is set.

Setting OPENSSL_TARGET explicitly to "none" will disable SSL support in cURL.

These scripts don't build the windows binaries yet - that still needs to be implemented. We can look at https://github.com/blackrosezy/build-libcurl-windows/blob/master/build.bat as a starting point for doing that.
