Add the ability to embed a CA bundle into the curl binary. It is used
when no other runtime or build-time option set one.
This helps curl-for-win macOS and Linux builds to run standalone, and
also helps Windows builds to avoid picking up the CA bundle from an
arbitrary (possibly world-writable) location (though this behaviour is
not currently disablable).
Usage:
- cmake: `-DCURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- autotools: `--with-ca-embed=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
- Makefile.mk: `CURL_CA_EMBED=/path/to/curl-ca-bundle.crt`
Also add new command-line option `--dump-ca-embed` to dump the embedded
CA bundle to standard output.
Closes#14059
Create ASCII version of manpage without nroff
- build src/tool_hugegelp.c from the ascii manpage
- move the the manpage and the ascii version build to docs/cmdline-opts
- remove all use of nroff from the build process
- should make the build entirely reproducible (by avoiding nroff)
- partly reverts 2620aa9 to build libcurl option man pages one by one
in cmake because the appveyor builds got all crazy until I did
The ASCII version of the manpage
- is built with gen.pl, just like the manpage is
- has a right-justified column making the appearance similar to the previous
version
- uses a 4-space indent per level (instead of the old version's 7)
- does not do hyphenation of words (which nroff does)
History
We first made the curl build use nroff for building the hugehelp file in
December 1998, for curl 5.2.
Closes#13047
Rework CMake options for building/using curl tool and libcurl manuals.
- rename `ENABLE_MANUAL` to `ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL`, meaning:
to build man page and built-in manual for curl tool.
- rename `BUILD_DOCS` to `BUILD_LIBCURL_DOCS`, meaning:
to build man pages for libcurl.
- `BUILD_LIBCURL_DOCS` now works without having to enable
`ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL` too.
- drop support for existing CMake-level `USE_MANUAL` option to avoid
confusion. (It used to work with the effect of current
`ENABLE_CURL_MANUAL`, but only by accident.)

Since the tool itself now uses the base64 code using the curlx way, it
needs to build also when the tool needs it. Starting now, the tool build
defines BULDING_CURL to allow lib-side code to use it.

Found the root cause of the startup crash in unity builds with Unicode
and TrackMemory enabled at the same time.
We must make sure that the `memdebug.h` header doesn't apply to
`lib/curl_multibyte.c` (as even noted in a comment there.) In unity
builds all headers apply to all sources, including `curl_multibyte.c`.
This probably resulted in an infinite loop on startup.
Exclude this source from unity compilation with TrackMemory enabled,
in both libcurl and curl tool. Enable unity mode for a debug Unicode
CI job to keep it tested. Also delete the earlier workaround that
fully disabled unity for affected builds.

Earlier this year we changed our own stderr variable to use the standard
name `stderr` (to avoid bugs where someone is using `stderr` instead of
the curl-tool specific variable). This solution needed to override the
standard `stderr` symbol via the preprocessor. This in turn didn't play
well with unity builds and caused curl tool to crash or stay silent due
to an uninitialized stderr. This was a hard to find issue, fixed by
manually breaking out one file from the unity sources.
To avoid two these two tricks, this patch implements a different
solution: Restore using our own local variable for our stderr output and
leave `stderr` as-is. To avoid using `stderr` by mistake, add a
`checksrc` rule (based on logic we already used in lib for `strerror`)
that detects any `stderr` use in `src` and points to using our own
variable instead: `tool_stderr`.

Came up while testing debug/testing build for Windows. I'm not sure why
it didn't come up in earlier tests with similar config.
`tool_hugehelp.c` might indeed require `zlib.h` and without linking
`CURL_LIBS` to the `curltool` target, CMake doesn't seem to add detected
dependency headers to the compiler command.

Add support for command line variables. Set variables with --variable
name=content or --variable name@file (where "file" can be stdin if set
to a single dash (-)).
Variable content is expanded in option parameters using "{{name}}"
(without the quotes) if the option name is prefixed with
"--expand-". This gets the contents of the variable "name" inserted, or
a blank if the name does not exist as a variable. Insert "{{" verbatim
in the string by prefixing it with a backslash, like "\\{{".
Import an environment variable with --variable %name. It makes curl exit
with an error if the environment variable is not set. It can also rather
get a default value if the variable does not exist, using =content or
@file like shown above.
Example: get the USER environment variable into the URL:
--variable %USER
--expand-url = "https://example.com/api/{{USER}}/method"
When expanding variables, curl supports a set of functions that can make
the variable contents more convenient to use. It can trim leading and
trailing white space with "trim", output the contents as a JSON quoted
string with "json", URL encode it with "url" and base 64 encode it with
"b64". To apply functions to a variable expansion, add them colon
separated to the right side of the variable. They are then performed in
a left to right order.
Example: get the contents of a file called $HOME/.secret into a variable
called "fix". Make sure that the content is trimmed and percent-encoded
sent as POST data:
--variable %HOME=/home/default
--expand-variable fix@{{HOME}}/.secret
--expand-data "{{fix:trim:url}}"

Closes#11346
This patch adds the ability to build a static and shared libcurl library
in a single build session. It also adds an option to select which one to
use when building the curl executable.
New build options:
- `BUILD_STATIC_LIBS`. Default: `OFF`.
Enabled automatically if `BUILD_SHARED_LIBS` is `OFF`.
- `BUILD_STATIC_CURL`. Default: `OFF`.
Requires `BUILD_STATIC_LIBS` enabled.
Enabled automatically if building static libcurl only.
- `STATIC_LIB_SUFFIX`. Default: empty.
- `IMPORT_LIB_SUFFIX`. Default: `_imp` if implib filename would collide
with static lib name (typically with MSVC) in Windows builds.
Otherwise empty.
Also:
- Stop setting the `CURL_STATICLIB` macro via `curl_config.h`, and pass
it directly to the compiler. This also allows to delete a condition
from `tests/server/CMakeLists.txt`.
- Complete a TODO by following the logic used in autotools (also for
`LIBCURL_NO_SHARED`), and set `-DCURL_STATICLIB` in `Cflags:` of
`libcurl.pc` for _static-only_ curl builds.
- Convert an existing CI test to build both shared and static libcurl.
Closes#11505
Add a `libcurlu`/`libcurltool` static library that is compiled only for
unit tests. We use `EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` to make sure that they're not
built by default, they're only built if unit tests are built.
These libraries allow us to compile every unit test with CMake.
Closes#11446
Aka "jumbo" or "amalgamation" builds. It means to compile all sources
per target as a single C source. This is experimental.
You can enable it by passing `-DCMAKE_UNITY_BUILD=ON` to cmake.
It requires CMake 3.16 or newer.
It makes builds (much) faster, allows for better optimizations and tends
to promote less ambiguous code.
Also add a new AppVeyor CI job and convert an existing one to use
"unity" mode (one MSVC, one MinGW), and enable it for one macOS CI job.
Fix related issues:
- add missing include guard to `easy_lock.h`.
- rename static variables and functions (and a macro) with names reused
across sources, or shadowed by local variables.
- add an `#undef` after use.
- add a missing `#undef` before use.
- move internal definitions from `ftp.h` to `ftp.c`.
- `curl_memory.h` fixes to make it work when included repeatedly.
- stop building/linking curlx bits twice for a static-mode curl tool.
These caused doubly defined symbols in unity builds.
- silence missing extern declarations compiler warning for ` _CRT_glob`.
- fix extern declarations for `tool_freq` and `tool_isVistaOrGreater`.
- fix colliding static symbols in debug mode: `debugtime()` and
`statename`.
- rename `ssl_backend_data` structure to unique names for each
TLS-backend, along with the `ssl_connect_data` struct member
referencing them. This required adding casts for each access.
- add workaround for missing `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types in certain Windows
builds when compiling `lib/ldap.c`. To support "unity" builds, we had
to enable `SCHANNEL_USE_BLACKLISTS` for Schannel (a Windows
`schannel.h` option) _globally_. This caused an indirect inclusion of
Windows `schannel.h` from `ldap.c` via `winldap.h` to have it enabled
as well. This requires `[P]UNICODE_STRING` types, which is apperantly
not defined automatically (as seen with both MSVS and mingw-w64).
This patch includes `<subauth.h>` to fix it.

There is no need for such function. Include_directories propagate by
themselves and having a function with one simple link statement makes
little sense.
