This is a fairly low level interface to the Gnome project's libghttp,
|
||
|
|
which allows you to process HTTP requests to HTTP servers. There also
|
||
|
|
exists a slightly higher level interface - a simple get() function which
|
||
|
|
takes a URI as a parameter.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It allows you to make very simple HTTP requests, without the weight of
|
||
|
|
something like LWP. This makes it very useful in situations where
|
||
|
|
memory and speed are at a premium, such as mod_perl.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It has full support for proxy requests and authenticated requests.
