Overview
The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a lightweight,
stateless application protocol that is used to access resources on
web servers, as well as send data to those servers for processing.
The library provides direct, low-level access to the server and the
commands that are used to retrieve resources (i.e.: documents,
images, etc.). The library also provides a simple interface for
downloading resources to the local host, similar to how the FTP
library can be used to download files.
In a typical session, the library is used to establish a
connection, send a request (to download a resource, post data for
processing, etc.), read the data returned by the server and then
disconnect. It is the responsibility of the client to process the
data returned by the server, depending on the type of resource that
was requested.
This library supports secure connections using the standard SSL
and TLS protocols.
Requirements
The SocketTools Library Edition libraries are compatible with
any programming language that supports calling functions exported
from a standard dynamic link library (DLL). If you are using Visual
C++ 6.0 it is required that you have Service Pack 6 (SP6)
installed. It is recommended that you install all updates for your
development tools and have the current Windows SDK installed.
This library is supported on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003,
Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008. If you are using
Windows XP, it is required that you have Service Pack 3 (SP3)
installed. It is recommended that all service packs and critical
updates to the Windows operating system be installed.
This product includes both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries. Native
64-bit CPU support requires the latest 64-bit version of Windows XP
Professional, Windows Server 2003 or later versions of the Windows
operating system.
Distribution
When you distribute your application that uses this library, it
is recommended that you install the file in the same folder as your
application executable. If you install the library into a shared
location on the system, it is important that you distribute the
correct version for the target platform and it should be registered
as a shared DLL. This is a standard Windows dynamic link library,
not an ActiveX component, and does not require COM
registration.
