#libcURL.IsAvailable

##Method Signature

 Protected Function IsAvailable() As Boolean

##Notes Returns True if libcURL is available at runtime. If libcURL (or a library it depends upon) is not available or does not meet the minimum version then this method returns False.

##Minimum version The minimum supported version of libcURL is 7.15.2. Versions prior to 7.34.0 may or may not work properly, but versions prior to 7.15.2 will not.

This is due to the way libcURL is initialized: versions prior to 7.15.2 require that the global initialization and cleanup functions are called exactly once each. Later versions allow multiple calls, provided that for every initialization there is a matching cleanup.

This project aims to minimize the number of calls to these functions as much as possible, but it does not guarantee that they are called only once each.
