Hi Daniel,
-DCURL_STATICLIB should appear in libcurl.pc only when libcurl is
built only as a static library. I imagine this should be sensitive
to the configure option '--disable-shared'.
Most builds are likely to build both shared and static libraries,
since that's what configure does by default.
I could have and should have been more succinct. The essence of my
suggestion is to add -DCURL_STATICLIB to libcurl.pc if and only if the
build is configured with "--disable-shared". This is just a convenience
for static-only setups.
The next paragraph was just commentary:
This solution is not suitable for a configuration building both
static and shared libcurl, but I don't think this can be done using
mingw anyway, which is the important case.
The important case for you, yes. libcurl.pc and friends are generic
for many systems though...
By "important case", I mean Windows and MinGW in particular. It's
"important" because the "_imp" prefix decorations that otherwise result
are a problem for linking to static libcurl. But this paragraph can be
safely ignored anyway.
regards,
Mark
