RE: no response return when using https in libcurl

Miklos,
 
The response is displayed in the command prompt windows. Yes, if I need to get the
response in the application, I should do in the way you told me to do. I've got some code for that written already. But first of all, I need to get the response from the https website.
 
Thanks,
Victor

Aah, OK, now I understand your problem.
Sorry that I misunderstood first.
 
However, in your code how do you receive the response.
You should have something like:
      curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle,CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION,MemoryStruct_WriteMemoryCallback);
      curl_easy_setopt(curl_handle,CURLOPT_FILE,chunk);
HTH,
 
Miklos

Miklos,

I could not get the response from the destination when I used https URLs.

I traced the networking and found that even no request was sent the destination when the URL was https. (But when URL was http, everything was fine)

I thought maybe I did not have correct environment for curling https URL. But in the windows command line, I can curl https correctly. For your convenience, I put my code in the following:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  CURL *curl;
  CURLcode res;

  curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_DEFAULT);

  curl = curl_easy_init();
  if(curl) {
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://hyperion.blue-world.net");
    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);

    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
  }

   curl_global_cleanup();

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you have any idea?

Thanks,

Victor

Victor,
Everything is all right with the responses, they are legal HTTP responses.
Actually, what is your problem with them?
You can try other secure URLs to test your application:
Or, you can set up your own SSL server to play with.

I have tried "curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_DEFAULT)", but it's not useful.
