Dear Friends,

I am using Cygwin and cURL : https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/ftpupload.html
Not too sure if anyone has been successfully able to compile this code in Windows.I have tried using Borland c++, Dev c++,
 
Turbo c++, cygwin, VC++6, VC++ 2005, VC++ 2010,but all my attempts have ebeen futile. While opening the exe of what I Compiled, I got the error as shown below
 
 
"a.exe – Unable To Locate Component
 This application has failed to start because cygcurl-4.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem."
 
Cheers,
Dorothy

Hello Dorothy,

To resolve that issue, you will need to do the following:

First, you will need to replace the framedyn.dll file on your system as follows:

  • On your computer click Start, and then click Run.
  • After that go to the Open box and then type %systemroot%system32dllcache, and then click OK.
  • And then right-click framedyn.dll, and then click Copy.
  • After that click Start, and then click Run.
  • Go to the Open box and then type %systemroot%system32wbem, and then click OK.
  • Go to the Edit menu, click Paste.

Next, you will need to verify the system variables:

  • On your computer click Start, and then right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
  • And then go to the System Properties dialog box and click the Advanced tab.
  • After that click Environment Variables.
  • And then go to System variables, click Path, and then click Edit.
  • In the Variable value box, you will need to type the following:

%SystemRoot%system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%System32wbem

Regards,

Carl
