Re: debug CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS url?

hi,
Sorry, I see this has been asked a lot before.
So that means I should read the data into a buffer and pass a pointer like
 const char *dataChar = data.c_str();
 curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, dataChar);
If somebody remembers an example out there thanks for saving the google
