I just went through this yesterday. You already found about having to add the SDK to your tool chain. In addition, you have to tell curl not to use LDAP if you so wish. Personally, I compile with the following definitions:

HAVE_ZLIB_H: to use zlib
USE_OPENSSL and USE_SSLEAY: to use OpenSSL
CURL_DISABLE_LDAP: to NOT use LDAP

Of course, zlib and OpenSSL will also require their respective libraries.

Hope that helps. Best regards,

Joe,

Thanks for the quick response.

The SDK pointed to by the MS URL is for Windows2003.  I am running W2K Pro.

Let's ignore the socklen_t undefined syntax error and move on to the definitions of LDAP_VENDOR_NAME and LDAP_VENDOR_VERSION and berval.

Do you have any idea why these 2 variables and datatype are undefined in a VS6 compile of libcurl?

Thanks again for your response...

Dan

For this header (and the appropriate definition of socklen_t) you
should install the core Microsoft platform SDK (and ensure that the
SDK's include and lib paths are first in your VC6 environment).
