A small collection of functions used in my projects working with curl.

In order to use this functions, remember to include the static library libcurl_a.lib and to add the compile command -DCURL_STATICLIB.

To obtain the library, I followed this method (from this post on Stack Overflow):

• Add Visual Studio to the system PATH:
  For example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin.
• Download current curl-X.zip from http://curl.haxx.se/download.html and unzip.
• Open command line at curl-X/winbuild.
• Call vcvars32.bat.
• Call nmake /f Makefile.vc mode=static VC=12 (change number to fit your version of Visual Studio).
• Go to curl-X/builds/libcurl-XXX. There you'll find the includes and the libcurl_a.lib.

You can use MACHINE=x64 with nmake to build an x64 lib.
