Compile libcurl with HTTPS/SSL

I'm using cURL 7.42.1 and MinGW. I'm having problems compiling libcurl with ssl support (for HTTPS). Ive tried defining USE_OPENSSL on lib\curl_setup.h but it still didn't work.

Ive been trying to find a solution to this for hours but i couldn't find one.

You must build libcurl with SSL support enabled, adding a define to curl_setup.h won't have the desired effect.

i.e.:

./configure --with-winssl

Then init curl the following way in your application:

if (curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL) != CURLE_OK)
    /* handle error */
