Windows 7 and libcurl

Open jim-easterbrook opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I'm experimenting with building libexiv2 v0.28.1 on Windows 7 (the only Windows machine I have). I notice that after compiling and installing the directory build-msvc/bin has a copy of libcurl.dll as well as exiv2.dll, but the directory build-msvc/install/bin only has exiv2.dll.

Shouldn't libcurl.dll (and any other non-system runtime dependencies) get copied as part of the "install" process? I believe curl is included in recent Windows, so this probably doesn't matter to most users.

I'm guessing this is related to Conan?

Very likely. I don't understand Conan enough to say.
