Re: [xml] HTTP client

[carl douglas convergys com]

I've been done this sort of thing with libxml.

I used libxml to parse the document, then dumped the doc to a string,
escaped the doc converting
the non alphanum chars in the doc to hex and then fired it across a socket,
cating it to a POST or GET with the CGI path.
There can be some problems depending on the web server and it's
implementation of URI unescaping.

I didnt try using the http functions in libxml because I was using OpenSSL
in the client.

Read the online documentation at the libxml site, it explains the all
functions well enough.

Hi there,

I need to write a HTTP client program sending HTTP Post request with a
chunk
of XML data and get response containing a chunk of XML data. Could somebody
show me an example code using HTTP/URI functions?

Thanks for help!

Charles
