Ok, so you declare 'response' in the top...
{
std::string response;
char data[128];
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "User-Agent:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
sprintf(data, "%s:%s", WebAdminUserName, WebAdminPassword);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERPWD, data);
sprintf(data, "UserName=%s&Password=%s", WebAdminUserName,
WebAdminPassword);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, data);
Quoted from the CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS description of the man page:
"The pointed data are NOT copied by the library: as a consequence, they must
be preserved by the calling application until the transfer finishes."
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, "cookie");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, "cookie");
sprintf(data, "%s/ServerAdmin/current_console_send",
WebAdminURL);
... so here you overwrite the data you asked libcurl to send!
[snip]
printf("\n");
printf(response.c_str());
... and here you reference 'response' without ever having done anything with
it.
I suggest you study the manuals closer and you follow the examples more
closely.
