Description:
------------
I'd like to compile php_curl statically into php but everything I tried only compiled it as a shared module.
I used the following configure options (tried both '--with-curl' and '--with-curl=static' and also tried to compile only with libcurl.lib and only with libcurl_a.lib):

.\configure --disable-all --enable-debug-pack --enable-cli --enable-ipv6 --disable-zts --enable-cgi --enable-com-dotnet --enable-filter --enable-pdo --with-libxml --with-iconv --with-openssl --enable-cgi --enable-zlib --enable-xmlreader --enable-xmlwriter --enable-session --with-mysqlnd --with-dom --enable-filter --enable-json --with-mysqli=shared --with-pdo-mysql=shared --enable-phar=shared --with-simplexml --with-xml --with-mcrypt=shared --enable-hash --enable-ftp --with-pdo-sqlite --with-sqlite3 --enable-zip --with-xmlrpc=shared --enable-ctype --with-mp=5 --with-gd=shared --enable-mbstring=shared --enable-bcmath=shared --enable-calendar=shared --enable-shmop=shared --enable-sockets=shared --with-wddx=shared --enable-tokenizer=shared --with-curl=static --with-oci8=shared,instantclient --with-xsl=shared --with-bz2=shared --enable-exif=shared --enable-intl=shared --with-gettext=shared --with-gmp=shared --with-imap=shared --with-ldap=shared --with-libwebp --enable-odbc=shared --with-pgsql=shared --with-pdo-pgsql=shared --with-tidy=shared --enable-soap=shared --with-pdo-odbc=shared --enable-fileinfo=shared

And got the following related to curl:
Checking for library libcurl_a.lib;libcurl.lib ... ..\deps\lib\libcurl.lib
Checking for curl/easy.h ...  E:\bld\nightly\phpdev\vc14\x86\deps\include

Thanks for the report. Yes, ext/curl won't build static as well as many other extensions on Windows. The reason are several limitations based on the concrete libraries builds, or their dependencies. In this case, the fact libcurl links with openssl enforces ext/curl to be always built shared.

Thanks.

Anatol - what changed since 5.6, where it was possible to build ext/curl as static?  Why does the dependency on OpenSSL make it impossible?

Thanks!

Hi Zeev,

ext/curl is forced shared since http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=deb0695069ef72d7a0936fdabaa7c9fea02f7fcd (like 5.2 times?). So nothing changed actually, 5.3 for sure behaves same already. There are many reasons for doing so, specifically with OpenSSL for link and runtime issues. But with other deps as well. 

We could indeed re-evaluate this case as this new technique used in 7.0 today http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=blob;f=UPGRADING.INTERNALS;hb=refs/heads/PHP-7.0#l311 . Amir, there's #winphp-dev on freenode where you could poke me for some direct discussions as well. If we can come up with a worky constelaltion, so could change it also at some other places (ext/ftp what comes in mind yet). Though please note that we only use libcurl_a.lib nowadays.

Thanks.
