Hello there,
I finally could build curl with SSL support on Windows.
First I tried linking against a fresh OpenSSL build, but I kept getting
linker error, and eventually I found the way.
In the CMAKE configuration step, all I had to do is check the
CURL_USE_SCHANNEL option and bingo! It seems it is the "Windows native
SSL/TLS".
Trying to link against SSL boderline made my head explode so... I think
it should be documented that on Windows platforms, users should use
CURL_USE_SCHANNE, or have CMAKE use this option by default.
Also, at first, when I built curl with *no* SSL backend, $curl -V would
still print:
>curl 7.79.1 (Windows) libcurl/7.79.1 Schannel
which means the curl tool executable uses the Schannel SSL backend no
matter what, and indeed something like:
$curl http*s*://www.google.com
did work, which was very confusing.
