The following code is just a simple program I made to allow me to get the
data from www.google.com yet once I execute it, all of the setopt's return
0, which I'm assuming means they failed, and when I don't have the "if(res
!= 0)" then the easy_perform call crashes. I'm fairly sure that I built
everything correctly and I have it set to use the dll's since -lcurl for
the static libraries wasn't working. I'm still new to this whole thing so
I'm hoping that I just did something wrong, but with a program this
simplified, I know it's not my code; I just can't see why the setopts
aren't working.

int main() {
     CURLcode res;
     curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);
     CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();
     if(curl)
     {
         res = curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, write_output);
         cout << endl << "setopt for CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION " << res << endl;
         cout << endl << "setopt for CURLOPT_VERBOSE " <<
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, TRUE) << endl;

         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "www.google.com");
         cout << endl << "setopt for CURLOPT_URL " << res << endl;
         if(res != 0)
         {
             try {
                 CURLcode success = curl_easy_perform(curl);
                 cout << endl << endl << "CURLCode code " << success <<
endl;
             }
             catch(char * str)
             {
                 cout << endl << endl << "Caught exception " << str << endl;
             }
         }
         system("Pause");
     }
}
