Hello List! I'll pretend that this is on topic because I'm asking about using libcurl with mingw-w64.
I downloaded curl and libcurl, I think from the curl web site. I have been using curl (from the windows command line) to fetch line-based text data from a web site. I am now considering building this into a program. My questions: Do I anticipate any issues using libcurl with mingw-w64? If so, what should I look out for and how might I deal with it? Second, right now I use curl to fetch data files, and then I read them into a program as an ifstream and use getline. In an ideal world, I would want to be able to get an istream from a libcurl call. As libcurl is c-based, I assume that I don't get this out of the box. Would anyone have suggestions for hooking up a libcurl call to an istream? Or would it not be worth the bother, and I should just use the buffer-based callback scheme that seems to be the libcurl way of doing it? This is on 64-bit windows 7, and the curl.exe that I downloaded appears to be a 64-bit program. Thanks for any suggestions. K.
