Summary: libcurl cannot compile statically under Win32

Initial Comment:
I use Microsoft Windows XP SP1, in a machine of 700 Mhz and 256 MB of RAM. For compiling I use MinGW and Dev C++.

Basically I downloaded the no-ssl version of libcurl, because I thought it was enogh for me. But, when I tried to compile statically, i get a lot of errors.

This line I used to compile:

g++ curl.cpp -o "curl.exe" -lcurl -lws2_32 -lwinmm

And those are the errors I get:

C:/dev-cpp/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/../../../libcurl.a(content_encoding.o)(.
text+0x5d): undefined reference to `inflateEnd'
C:/dev-cpp/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/3.4.2/../../../libcurl.a(content_encoding.o)(.

text+0x471): undefined reference to `inflateInit2_'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The source of the program I try to compile is just one example. Also I define the CURL_STATIC_LIB define.

And I get libcurl from http://devpak.org

You're using a libcurl built to use zlib but when you link with this
libcurl you obviously don't link with zlib...

This is not a libcurl bug.
