How to make a HTTP request

[akowundu]

Hello everybody. I have written a small program that does some string manipulation, but now I would like to enable HTTP requests in the same program. What are they ways to go about this? Is there a library that makes this possible or do I need to lock into higher level languages?

Thanks in advance.

So many libraries.

libcurl is popular. Here's a thread with some example code in it: http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/unices/45878/

and here's the libcurl example page: https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/example.html
