@Hacksign Hacksign commented Dec 3, 2024

Purpose

In some systems which is unable to update regularly, OpenWRT for example, current curl version requirement (>=7.64.0) is too high, this makes this project un-compatable to these old systems.

What has been done

I separated curl_url/curl_url_set/curl_url_get/curl_url_cleanup functions, which is used in src/main.c:44:hostname_from_url, from curl 8.11.1 to provide this project ability to compiled with curl >= 7.55.0.

Effects

After lower the dependency requirment, old systems shipped about 7 years ago, cloud compile this project.

When curl version is less than 7.62, curlite.c is compiled to provide missing functions in this project, when curl version is equal or above 7.62 the newest one will be used, curlite.c will not take effects.

Proves

I've tested the modified code on a 7x24 running router about 4 days, no problems has been found ;)

Here is a log that I compile the modified code with curl 7.55.0 (current minimum requirent, which is released about 7 years ago).

CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.10 will be removed from a future version of
  CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value.  Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax
  to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated
  to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier.
