Error libcurl compile

[wayn3]

Hy guys.. Today i started to install all i need to work with curl... i followed all things from here.. http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/Using-libcurl-with-SSH-support-in-Visual-Studio-2008.pdf
but when i reached the 3.5 libcurl step and point 4 when i need compile the curl library ... this error is comming up:

Compiling...
cl : Command line error D8030 : INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR in ''

I looked here http://207.46.16.248/en-us/library/4k027wt5(VS.80).aspx , but my problem is not found in those 4 solutions ..

What can i do ?

Sorry for my english , if are there some mistakes.

nobody knows ?

This isn't particular to do with the libcurl code.
It's the compiler throwing a fit because it cannot create the browse information.

In the project properites, under C++ -> Browse Infomation - see what it says for the browse directory.

[wayn3]

take... it's anything wrong with this ? http://www.istw11.ilive.ro/take.png

[guestgulkan]

Damn, I was hoping it was set to something else.

Try Selecting None for the Enable Browser Information - OK that, then try a Rebuild Solution from the Build menu and see if it goes through.

the same error.. this error is really making people mad :]]

without this , is there any chances to continue the configurations ?

I just need to work with curl

[guestgulkan]

Can't you just download the pre-built binaries [ the lib(s) and dll(s) ] and avoid all these compiling issues?

[wayn3]

Can you give me a link please ?
And with the the pre-built binaries , what should i do with them ? I will need just to copy to VC++ ?

[modoran]

'internal compiler error' looks like very serious error related to your vs2008 instalation. can you compile other projects ?

[wayn3]

modoran , yes i can..

[guestgulkan]

I was looking at this site here:
http://curl.haxx.se/download.html

As I haven't used Curl I might just download it all and try it out - but we are talking about
sometime during the next week.

guestgulkan .. have you done ? i am so impatient :d

[guestgulkan]

I'm currently reading through the process, I sure they could have made this whole process much clearer to understad.

[guestgulkan]

here is what I've done - OK _ you probably already taken some of these steps anyway.

I downloaded the source code (i used the zip file version) and unzipped it ( curl-7.21.4)

In that directory there is an MSVC project file called vc6curl.dsw
I opened that project file using MSVC2008 - note because the project file was made for VC6 thenVC2008 will ask you if you want it converted.
Say YES to the conversion.

After the conversion you will have 2 projects showing in the VC2008 solutions window (curlsrc and libcurl).

From the Build menu, select Batch Build...
You will see 8 builds listed in the display box (although if you use Vc2010 you might see 9 builds listed - in that cas ignore the one with Template in it's name)
Select them all for build and click the build button.

I just did that not more than 15 minutes ago and all 8 projects built with no problems.
(only a warning about conversion from type time_t to type long)

** For the record, which MSVC version are you using??**

EDIT:
I also downloaded the openssl library from this site here:
