Re: Building libcurl with Borland BCC5.5 compiler

Steve & Daniel,
After playing around and experimenting with the Makefile, I was able to
successfully build. Just to make sure, I saved Makefile.b32, deleted the
curl-master, and did a make again. I did this just to make sure my process
still works even after a fresh extract.
I pastebin'd the changes so you either of you can take a look :
http://pastebin.com/FuGGL6iS ( expires in 2 weeks )
Line 56 does need to be edited back to it's default state which is without
-HTTP_ONLY and -DCURL_STATICLIB defines
I do believe some changes were not needed since after creating the
.\BCC_obj\vtls directory, no files are placed inside of it during the make
process.
I will leave this up to the real developers ( you guys ) to decide on what
to do with this.
Thank you for your generosity and the kick ass library you have put
together.
Regards,
JT
