thanks armel,
  I still have the same error, but I dont have the .lib files. I only have the .a files.
  do i have to compile libcurl from source too?
generally, unix oriented compilers (such as gcc) build .a files for static libraries, and .so for dynamic (or .dylib on Mac OS X) so it seems OK. be sure to have -L be the directory containing the libraries. here i build libcurl with a few modification so what I explain is for libcurl built from source. else -L should point to the place where libcurl is installed on your system.

      I have been trying to compile curlpp with little success. I am using mingw and msys.
      Here are the commands I have been using:

      export PATH="$PATH:/g/programming/libs/libcurl-7.16.4/bin"
      export CPPFLAGS="-I/g/programming/libs/libcurl- 7.16.4/include"
      ./configure
      make

      I eventually run into this error:

      c:\mingw\bin\..\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2\..\..\..\..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot find -lcurl
    you probably need some -L option in your LDFLAGS, such as LDFLAGS="-Lg/programming/libs/libcurl- 7.16.4/lib/.libs"
      Apparently mingw cant find the libcurl library. How do I tell libcurl where this file is?
      Or is there something else I am doing wrong?
