I am working on a small GUI application (wxWidgets) for Windows which downloads files from a web server using libcurl. While the GUI framework shows no terminal, everytime the curl_easy_perform function does its job (in a separate thread), it opens up such shell for a split second. Since a lot of files need to be transfered consecutively, it results in a flickering and focus-grabbing annoyance -> users cannot control the GUI properly anymore.

How to prevent libcurl from spawning shells?


It sounds like what you are seeing is console windows. I can't think of any scenario in which libcurl would cause that. I also don't recall wxWidgets doing that but I haven't used it in a while. Can you give us a self contained example that can be used to reproduce the issue you describe?
