Building Oauth2 for C on Windows
To build OAuth2 for C on Windows, you can follow these general steps:
Download and install the necessary dependencies: You will need to install the following packages: OpenSSL, cURL, and libxml2. You can download these packages from their respective websites.
Download and extract the OAuth2 for C library: You can download the OAuth2 for C library from its GitHub repository. Extract the files to a folder on your computer.
Open a command prompt and navigate to the OAuth2 for C folder.
Configure the library: Run the following command to configure the library:
csharp./configure --with-curl=DIR --with-ssl=DIR --with-libxml2=DIR
Replace
DIR
with the path to the installation directories for cURL, OpenSSL, and libxml2. For example:csharp./configure --with-curl=C:\curl --with-ssl=C:\OpenSSL-Win64 --with-libxml2=C:\libxml2-2.9.12.win32
Build the library: Run the following command to build the OAuth2 for C library:
gomake
Install the library: Run the following command to install the OAuth2 for C library:
gomake install
This will install the library on your system.
Use the OAuth2 for C library in your project: To use the OAuth2 for C library in your project, you will need to include the appropriate header files and link against the library.
For example, to compile a file called
myapp.c
that uses the OAuth2 for C library, you would run the following command:gcc -o myapp myapp.c -loauth2 -lcurl -lssl -lcrypto -lxml2
This will link against the OAuth2 for C library as well as the cURL, OpenSSL, and libxml2 libraries.
These steps should get you started with building and using OAuth2 for C on Windows. Note that you may need to adjust the paths and options to fit your specific system configuration.
