Thanks Dan for your timley reply. It worked as per your suggestion.

But with the previous mentioned scenario, I am stuck up at other place. For
my request(with no content), server responds with some response, but
libcurl is not passing the response to my application. I captured TCP
packets and it shows the response received from the server, but libcurl is
not posting to application.

Thanks
Sukanya
