About Http request

[LeviZhou]

Hi,

I have a question about the WinHttpSendRequest, if I send a request using WinHttpSendRequest.

how can the server site know he received the request, any api or message map worked?

Thanks a lot,

Levi

Your webserver will startup a special SOCKET to listening PORT:8080.

Since any sort of client program has to first connect to a server before sending anything, as long as you have a connection established your request should get through.

In the event that something does go wrong, here is a link to MSDN's documentation for WinHttpSendRequest()
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384110(VS.85).aspx
You should look at the different return values in order to handle the different errors.

If WinHttpSendRequest() returns TRUE, then you should be fine. Although, what the server decides to do with your request is another story. It should send you back some type of response that you can query with HttpQueryInfo().

Here is the link to MSDN's documentation for HttpQueryInfo()

Hope that this was helpful.
