Worked on enhancing build configurability for the yhirose/cpp-httplib repository by introducing a new CMake option, HTTPLIB_SHARED, which allows downstream projects to explicitly select between static and shared library builds. This approach avoided overriding the standard BUILD_SHARED_LIBS variable, preserving compatibility with various toolchains and preventing unexpected changes in build behavior for consumers. The work focused on build configuration and library development, leveraging expertise in CMake to streamline integration for projects depending on cpp-httplib. By honoring consumer-provided build settings, the update improved flexibility and reliability in library usage, addressing integration pain points without introducing breaking changes or regressions.
