Re: [xml] [PATCH] xmlIO HTTPS handler using libcurl [version 2]

Hi Daniel,

I'm sure other people have used curl in a libxml2 context, their feedback
would be welcome.

We use curl with libxml2 in Prince by specifying our own entity loader. One downside of this approach is that we cannot fully support the "referer" HTTP header, as the entity loader is just given a URL to load but is not given the URL of the referring document. I guess that using curl as an IO handler directly within libxml2 would avoid this issue?

Best regards,

Michael

yes, i believe this would avoid this issue. Acc'd to http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html,
you would use CURLOPT_REFERER
