Re: [lwip-users] http client

[John Hoffman]

Andy,

Unless something has changed, I don't think you will find what you are looking 
for. 
I posted this question several years ago and did not find a proper HTTP client 
API.
I did find several people on the TI forums who were trying to the same thing. I 
saw a couple of C modules that were posted and used that as a starting point.
In the end we implemented our own HTTP client that sent  web service calls to a 
web service on a PC.
The calls were used to POST data as fast as possible to a web service. This is 
much different than your use case, but in the end a POST is a POST.
Our HTTP client module is not general purpose and therefore I cannot send you 
anything useful.
I can tell you that you have to implement HTTP client protocol over TCP sockets 
and this takes some time.  We also fought several defects along the way because 
we have LWIP 1.3.2.
Our code  does work and I would be willing to answer specific questions if you 
go this route.

Hope this helped, I feel your pain.

John

Subject: [lwip-users] http client

Hello,

I am trying to find an example of how to send a HTTP client request to a PHP 
page on an Apache httpd/PHP server with data that the PHP page can get access 
to using $_POST[].

I think I must be looking in the wrong places as I can't find anything.  Can 
someone point me in the right direction please?

Thanks,

Andy.
