CMake
find_package(CURL)
setsCURL_LIBRARIES
to the list of needed libcurl library files, and this feature is available since the introduction ofFindCURL.cmake
module (in 2006), so I don't really see the point of usingfind_package(CURL)
only to manually search for curl libraries again.This PR is tested to not break current builds (at least on Linux and Windows). Also, by allowing CMake to do the hard work, this PR fixes build errors when using static libcurl and/or custom libcurl built with CMake (via
-DCURL_ROOT=...
).
