You need to have the libcurl library installed, that is why it gives an error. BrainLearn needs it to make API requests to chessDB for LiveBook usage.

In Linux it is quite easy to install it, because you only have to install libcurl4-openssl-dev with you package manager depending on the distribution you use.

For Windows, you'll notice that when you download the BrainLearn source code there is a folder called "curl", there you'll find the necessary files for compilation.

I am not sure, but I think you'll have to move the curl folder into mingw64/bin/include in order to make the compilation work.

If you don't manage to compile it just use the pre-compiled binaries that Andrea uploaded in the latest release tag.

Regards.

Nothing works from your advice, could you provide more precise help?

May be the new version 26.5 ,with bug fix (in make file part), can help you. I shared it.
Best regards

Thanks for pointing out the right paths OrgZ, since I dont use Windows I was not really sure where the files had to go lol.

and you call yourself a programmer what a lol.

if you have ming x64 (if its x32 you do it in there )
>the curl folder to:
x86_w64-mingw32\include

>file libcurl.a to:
x86_w64-mingw32\lib

Hi Apocalypse
If you are member of outskirts chess forum you can ask your question directly from Andrea Monza the author of brainlearn engine. His username there is “amchess”. Also Mr. Goi always compiles and updates brainlearn for his forum. You can ask him too. He is capable and skilled person too and you are also member of his forum.
Greetings
