Sur mon blog, j'ai publié une classe wrapper simple pour effectuer cette tâche.
Exemple d'utilisation :
#include "HTTPDownloader.hpp"
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
HTTPDownloader downloader;
std::string content = downloader.download("https://stackoverflow.com");
std::cout << content << std::endl;
}
Voici le fichier d'en-tête :
/**
* HTTPDownloader.hpp
*
* A simple C++ wrapper for the libcurl easy API.
*
* Written by Uli Köhler (techoverflow.net)
* Published under CC0 1.0 Universal (public domain)
*/
#ifndef HTTPDOWNLOADER_HPP

class HTTPDownloader {
public:
HTTPDownloader();
~HTTPDownloader();
/**

* @return The download result
*/
std::string download(const std::string& url);
