Daniel,

I have built a standalone executable which does a simple post to the servlet residing on the websphere app server.

Here is the code:-

 curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://e302190.nw.nos.boeing.com/servlet/com.boeing.wss.common.authentication.servlet.AuthenticationServlet");
  
   /* send all data to this function */
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, WriteMemoryCallback);

  /* we pass our 'chunk' struct to the callback function */
  curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FILE, (void *)&chunk);

//create a parameter string to pass parameters to
//the servlet. (userid=<userid>"&passwd=<passwd>
   strcpy(parambuffer, "userid=");
   strcat(parambuffer, "user1");
   strcat(parambuffer, "&passwd=");
   strcat(parambuffer, "pass1");

    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, parambuffer);
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);

________________END________________________

This code works well as a standalone executable. Now i use the same code and build it as part of a shared object. I seem to get an error while trying to execute the same code in an shared object.

I was not able to compile the libcurl code with the ssl option enabled even though i had openssl libraries on my machine. So i installed a compiled curl-ssl package. Will this cause any of the above problems ?

The utility "curl" works fine. I am able to call https URL's and get back results from them.

I am not doing curl_global_init. I read it in the documentation that curl_easy_init calls curl_global_init internally.

The shared object is built around a oblix netpoint single sign-on infrastructure. So the oblix Access server executable calls the shared object.
