Re: I would like to integrate the library directly into my application

Why not just link with libcurl.a instead of trying to include the .c
files? Basically you need to add --enable-static to the command line for
libcurl's configure, and then put /<full>/<path>/<to>/libcurl.a in the
link line for your project.
