cdllcodeblockslibcurlmingw32

How do I set up libcurl in Code::Blocks correctly?


I downloaded the latest version curl-8.0.1.zip and unzipped it. I then ran the command mingw32-make mingw32 in the root directory of the libcurl library to build and compile the library.

I went over to Code::Blocks, then in Settings -> Compiler... -> Linker Settings, I added the file ../lib/libcurl.dll.a. And then in Search directories added the directory ../include to Compiler and Resource compiler, and added ../lib to Linker.

This is what I got:

I got this error

What am I doing wrong here?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Solution

  • I fixed the problem. All I needed to do was add the directory of libcurl.dll to the system PATH and restart Code::Blocks.
