如何在 Visual Studio 中使用 cURLpp？

Question

I'm using VS 2019, have downloaded all the cURLpp headers, put them and the cURL headers in an include folder and added this include directory under Project Properties -> Additional Include Directories. When I try to build example00.cpp from the cURLpp site, I get errors saying I have an unresolved external symbol. I've never used a third party library with C++ before, so please explain like I'm an idiot. Should I have a dll or lib file?

Answer 1

I use vcpkg to install curlpp , and I find that my project configuration in visual studio is x64 , if I use x86 curlpp it will get build error, I need to use x64 curlpp then build sucess.

This is the include step:

1. Run cmd command: vcpkg install curlpp:x64-windows
2. goto Project > Configuration Properties -> Linker -> General -> Additional Library Directories, add yourVcpkgFolderPath\\vcpkg\\installed\\x64-windows\\lib\\
3. goto Project > Configuration Properties -> Linker -> Input -> Additional Dependencies, add curlpp.lib

Then build the project, it should build success.
