| DESCRIPTION |
| |
| (If you're only looking for precompiled win32 binaries, go visit |
| https://curl.haxx.se/download.html) |
| |
| Packaging of the curl binaries for Win32 should at this point in time be based |
| on the InfoZip (zip/unzip) archiver family as the de-facto standard for |
| Windows archives. A package should contain the main binary curl.exe along with |
| the appropriate documentation and license information files. For development |
| releases, you should also include the header directory and probably the |
| compiled binaries of libcurl and the appropriate Makefiles/project definition |
| files for the compiler used. |
| |
| A simple packaging mechanism can be based on a set of batch files which call |
| zip.exe with the appropriate files from the curl distribution - see the |
| samples included below (Long lines have been split with "\" as the split |
| marker, you'll want to rejoin the pieces to be all on one line in the batch |
| file). Call any of these batch files - after compiling the curl binaries - |
| with a single parameter specifying the name of the archive file to be created. |
| |
| It is implicitely assumed that all of the binary files (curl.exe, libcurl.a, |
| etc) have previously been copied to the main directory of the curl source |
| package (the directory where the main README resides), because that is where |
| they should end up in the zip archive. The archive should *not* be built with |
| absolute path information because the user will want to locally extract the |
| archive contents and shift the binaries to his executable directory. |

| PROCEDURE_EXAMPLE |
| |
| A standard packaging routine (for MingW32) using the above batch files could |
| go like this: |
| (No SSL) (With SSL) |
| cd <curl-sourcedir>\lib cd <curl-sourcedir>\lib |
| make -f Makefile.m32 make -f Makefile.m32 SSL=1 |
| cd ..\src cd ..\src |
| make -f Makefile.m32 make -f Makefile.m32 SSL=1 |
| cd .. cd .. |
| copy lib\libcurl.a . copy lib\libcurl.a . |
| copy src\curl.exe . copy src\curl.exe . |
| curlpkg curl-win32-nossl.zip curlpkg curl-win32-ssl.zip |
