The idea of CURLOPT_READFUNCTION is that you can implement your own
function that reads from whatever payload source you are using. The read
function in the example is for the (artificial) use case of your data
source being a char*[]. Since your payload comes as QString, it will be
easier to write your own version of the payload_source function that can
read from a QString as opposed to trying to fit your QString into a
char*[]. See
http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_setopt.html#CURLOPTREADFUNCTION
for details on how your QString read function should behave.
