... and add a generic explanation for them instead. Each example file should contain its own description these days.

This directory is for libcurl programming examples. They are meant to show
|
|
some simple steps on how you can build your own application to take full
|
|
advantage of libcurl.
|
|
|
|
If you end up with other small but still useful example sources, please mail
|
|
them for submission in future packages and on the web site.
|

BUILDING
|
|
|
|
The Makefile.example is an example makefile that could be used to build these
|
|
examples. Just edit the file according to your system and requirements first.
|
|
|
|
Most examples should build fine using a command line like this:
|
|
|
|
$ `curl-config --cc --cflags --libs` -o example example.c
|
|
|
|
Some compilers don't like having the arguments in this order but instead
|
|
want you do reorganize them like:
|
|
|
|
$ `curl-config --cc` -o example example.c `curl-config --cflags --libs`
|
|
|
|
*PLEASE* do not use the curl.haxx.se site as a test target for your libcurl
|
|
applications/experiments. Even if some of the examples use that site as a URL
|
|
at some places, it doesn't mean that the URLs work or that we expect you to
|
|
actually torture our web site with your tests! Thanks.
|
|

|
EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
Each example source code file is designed to be and work stand-alone and
|
|
rather self-explanatory. The examples may at times lack the level of error
|
|
checks you need in a real world, but that is then only for the sake of
|
|
readability: to make the code smaller and easier to follow.
