Re: How to do http "DELETE" in libcurl

Hi,
>>>>>>You can certainly do that, sure. If that's the correct action for

Your answer "If that's the correct action for your situation, we can't
tell" makes me un-sure. What I try to get is that for the http "DELETE",
include the url AND body portion, can "curl_easy_setopt(handle,
CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "DELETE");" and
"curl_easy_setopt(curlHandle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, frmdata);" achieve it?
I am sorry if I misunderstand what your answer is.
The following is the message -
//url portion
HTTP DELETE https://xxxxxx/object?name=xyz
// body portion
{
"bodayField":"abcd"
}
The url portion uses curl_easy_setopt(handle, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST,
"DELETE");
And the boday portion uses curl_easy_setopt(curlHandle, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
frmdata);
Will it work in libcurl?

You can certainly do that, sure. If that's the correct action for your
situation, we can't tell.
