Hello,
In the examples the url option always seems to be hard coded into the
programs. I am seeking to set the url option depending upon selections made
by the user at the command line. This is probably easily done, but I am new
to using libcurl and curlpp and cannot figure out how to do it. So for
example:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <curlpp/cURLpp.hpp>
#include <curlpp/Easy.hpp>
#include <curlpp/Options.hpp>
int main()
{
// code selection of a url
cURLpp::Cleanup mycleanup;
int option;
curlpp::options::Url myurl;
std::cout << "Input option '1' for uk or option '2' for us \n";
std::cin >> option;
switch(option)
{
case 1:
std::cout << "Option 1 selected...\n";
myurl = "http://www.uk.co.uk";;
break;
case 2:
std::cout << "Option 2 selected...\n";
myurl = "http://www.us.com";;
break;
}
return 0;
}
This code does not compile but i am trying to achieve something similar to
this with my code.
As an alternative to help explain my problem, consider this:
curlpp::options::Url myurl(std::string("https://www.google.com";));
Now if that was the url i wanted to use all the time - that would be fine.
But depending upon selection of an option in my code, i might want to set
the target url to "http:www.lycos.com" or perhaps "http://www.yahoo.com";.
In other words, the target url only becomes known at runtime and is
dependant upon a user selection at the command line.
>From what I can understand, the documentation appears to say that url takes
the following argument (const char *link) - so can what i seek be achieved
with a pointer or reference to a string? I would appreciate a snippet of
code if you are able to help with this.
thanks
