HI Daniel, Team Thanks for the responses.
I have been looking at the CURL code available at git. I see that the code sets the CUSTOMREQUEST option and the postdatafields as well for this purpose of sending DELETE with the data-body. With the call to multi_easy_perform(), do we just copy the header first to a data-buffer, place the data-body following the header and send it as a DELETE request based on the CUSTOMREQUEST option ? With packet-captures, I do see that the request goes out as DELETE, but just wanted to confirm if this is the case. Please confirm.

It tells libcurl to do such a request! Seriously though, there's nothing strange in there and anything speaking TCP could be made to send that. > Is it possible to get this ported to Java with the use of any of the Apache HTTP client libraries ? I would assume you can, but this is quite likely not a good place to ask that question - we're kind of focused on libcurl here. Surely there are much more suitable Apache HTTP client forums or lists to ask that question! -- / daniel.haxx.se ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- List admin: http://cool.haxx.se/list/listinfo/curl-library Etiquette: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/etiquette.html
