Thread: help with libcurl

hello, im learning to use libcurl post method, and i need some help...

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
  
int main(void){
    CURL *curl;
    CURLcode res;
  
    curl = curl_easy_init();
    if(curl) {
       
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "localhost/config.php");        
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "$POST[in_chkcacic] => test1");  
      
        res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

        curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
    }
    return 0;
}

Can i use the bold parameter like this? I want to test sending a post to myself and that config.php was made to receive the post and write a return XML file...

This might work (looks like you're mixing up your PHP and C):

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <curl/curl.h>
  
int main(void){
    CURL *curl;
    CURLcode res;
  
    curl = curl_easy_init();
    if(curl) {
       
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://localhost/config.php");        
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, "in_chkcacic=test1");
      
        res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

        curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
    }
    return 0;
}

thx... but where should my config.php be placed? home?
