vc2008构建和使用libcurl静态库

1>下载CURL源代码curl-7.26.0.zip

 2>用VC2008/2005打开工程curl-7.26.0\lib\libcurl.vcproj,转换下工程并构建,可以直接编译成功!

3>新建个控制台工程测试下刚才编译的静态库libcurl.lib,可以在libcurl\curl-7.26.0\docs\examples目录找个简单的使用curl的例子,在这个工程选项Configuration Properties-| C/C++ -|General -|Additional Include Directories 路径中加入curl7.26\include, 在linker选项卡,指定静态库路径和静态库的名字libcurl.lib,代码如下

 

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <Windows.h>
#include "curl/curl.h"

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
	CURL *curl;
	CURLcode res;

	curl = curl_easy_init();
	if(curl) {
		curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://2345.com/?kduba");
		res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
		curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
	}
	return 0;
}

 此时cpp文件可以编译,但是链接报错

1>testcurl.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_easy_init
1>testcurl.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_easy_setopt
1>testcurl.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_easy_perform
1>testcurl.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__curl_easy_cleanup

 

看样子根本没有链接静态库,虽然刚才指定了库的路径,确认库路径的名字没错,于是看了下curl_easy_init 这个函数的定义,

 

CURL_EXTERN CURL *curl_easy_init(void);
CURL_EXTERN CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *curl, CURLoption option, ...);
CURL_EXTERN CURLcode curl_easy_perform(CURL *curl);
CURL_EXTERN void curl_easy_cleanup(CURL *curl);


/*
 * Decorate exportable functions for Win32 and Symbian OS DLL linking.
 * This avoids using a .def file for building libcurl.dll.
 */
#if (defined(WIN32) || defined(_WIN32) || defined(__SYMBIAN32__)) && \
     !defined(CURL_STATICLIB)
#if defined(BUILDING_LIBCURL)
#define CURL_EXTERN  __declspec(dllexport)
#else
#define CURL_EXTERN  __declspec(dllimport)
#endif
#else

 看到这里于是明白了,如下操作:

在libcurl静态库工程选项Configuration Properties-| C/C++ -| Preprocessor 中加上BUILDING_LIBCURL宏
在测试工程选项Configuration Properties-| C/C++ -| Preprocessor 中加上CURL_STATICLIB宏,然后依次重新构建两个工程

发现测试工程链接不过
