HTTP protocol for Palm OS (CodeWarrior Platform) - This library is an implementation of a subset of W3C specs for HTTP protocol. It's packed as a library file with C++ headers, so you can include it in your own programs simply linking it into your programs. It runs on ANY Palm OS device running Palm OS version 3.0 and higher (not only on Palm VII).
We'd released for versions of the library for the two platforms:
- Library for Metrowerks CodeWarrior
- Library for PRC Tools
Why a new HTTP library?
Sure, you may say: "Why a new HTTP library if there is an Internet Library API
explained in the Palm OS Programmer's Companion ????"
Well, the truth is, as explained in Palm documentation, the INetLib applies only to version 3.2 or later of the Palm OS on Palm VII devices, and those features are implemented only if the Wireless Internet Feature Set is present. This means that if you have any other model than a Palm VII you don't have HTTP protocol, so you cannot use it in your own programs. Using this library you will be able to write your own HTTP client programs connecting your Palm III, m100 or any other model with a telephone modem or using a cable and a cell phone. In addition to this, it provides a better control of the session, including information about HTTP headers, cookies, etc.
You can use the library for requesting information from existing web servers, and then parse the results. You can even use it for integrate your programs with existing Web Services.
· Provides HTTP client protocol on top of the standard Palm socket library.
· Easy to use, extensible C++ classes: functions as simple as connect(), execute request(), get response(), disconnect(), etc.
· Provides control for getting HTTP headers and cookies management.
