This example works for HTTP GET provided CURLOPT_UPLOAD is set. Else body is not sent along with http get. My app does exactly the same as in example, uses easy handle for synchronous call.
curl treats the specific methods differently, so depending on what you start out the request with you'll get slightly different behaviors.
Sending a GET with a body is unusual. A default GET request with curl doesn't send any body. To change this, the easy way is to do a POST (with POSTFIELDS or a callback) and change the method to "GET" with CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST. You'd do exactly the same thing to send a "DELETE" or "PATCH" with a body as well.
One difference I did notice is that Expect header was not being sent as part of headers in my app for http get/delete, I am using libcurl 7.59.0 version of libcurl.
curl sends Expect: according to some simple hueristics, and I'm pretty sure that logic is unchanged since way before 7.59.0.
