+ How To Build libcurl to Use c-ares For Asynch Name Resolves
+ ===========================================================
+
+c-ares:
+ http://c-ares.haxx.se/
+
+NOTE
+ The latest libcurl version requires c-ares 1.6.0 or later.
+
+ Once upon the time libcurl built fine with the "original" ares. That is no
+ longer true. You need to use c-ares.
+
+Build c-ares
+============
+
+1. unpack the c-ares archive
+2. cd c-ares-dir
+3. ./configure
+4. make
+5. make install
+
+Build libcurl to use c-ares in the curl source tree
+===================================================
+
+1. name or symlink the c-ares source directory 'ares' in the curl source
+ directory
+2. ./configure --enable-ares
+
+ Optionally, you can point out the c-ares install tree root with the the
+ --enable-ares option.
+
+3. make
+
+Build libcurl to use an installed c-ares
+========================================
+
+1. ./configure --enable-ares=/path/to/ares/install
+2. make
+
+c-ares on win32
+===============
+(description brought by Dominick Meglio)
+
+First I compiled c-ares. I changed the default C runtime library to be the
+single-threaded rather than the multi-threaded (this seems to be required to
+prevent linking errors later on). Then I simply build the areslib project (the
+other projects adig/ahost seem to fail under MSVC).
+
+Next was libcurl. I opened lib/config-win32.h and I added a:
+ #define USE_ARES 1
+
+Next thing I did was I added the path for the ares includes to the include
+path, and the libares.lib to the libraries.
+
+Lastly, I also changed libcurl to be single-threaded rather than
+multi-threaded, again this was to prevent some duplicate symbol errors. I'm
+not sure why I needed to change everything to single-threaded, but when I
+didn't I got redefinition errors for several CRT functions (malloc, stricmp,
+etc.)
+
+I would have modified the MSVC++ project files, but I only have VC.NET and it
+uses a different format than VC6.0 so I didn't want to go and change
+everything and remove VC6.0 support from libcurl.
