PHP Locally

How about just compiling libcurl (since that's what the code is - cURL) in Windows, then including it with your program, and have your program use the class? (I haven't looked at Delphi since it was Turbo Pascal for Windows, so I can't help you on that end of it.)

cURL is native C and may not be (easily) callable from Delphi. I expect Delphi has it's own or a 3rd party HTTP API. Kind of hard to imagine a modern OO language without one - even one as... I don't want to say dead... as Delphi.


@Darwinian - I am curious... why Delphi and not something more mainstream? Not knocking your choice of tools, whatever works for you is great, just curious. I do mostly C and Java and can't imagine giving up the portability.

Delphi was the first language I used when I moved over from the Amiga. Can't remember why but I've used it ever since as it's always done everything I've asked of it.

Once this project is over, you should try your hand at either C++ or Java. Then let us know what you think :-)

Ok

Seeing how Delphi apparently influenced Java, I suspect you'd find that language easier to pick up.
