I try to get this following url using the downloadURL function: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/27884304
But the data is not as what we can see through the browser. Now I know it's because that I need to give the correct information such as browser, how can I know what kind of information I need to set, and how can I set it? (By setHeader function??)
In VC++, we can use CInternetSession and CHttpConnection Object to get the correct information without setting any other detail information, is there any similar way in Qt or other cross-platform C++ network lib?? (Yes, I need the the cross-platform property.)
QNetworkReply::NetworkError downloadURL(const QUrl &url, QByteArray &data) {
QNetworkAccessManager manager;
QNetworkRequest request(url);
request.setHeader(QNetworkRequest::ContentTypeHeader ,"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT
6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)");
QNetworkReply *reply = manager.get(request);
QEventLoop loop;
QObject::connect(reply, SIGNAL(finished()), &loop, SLOT(quit()));
loop.exec();
QVariant statusCodeV = reply->attribute(QNetworkRequest::RedirectionTargetAttribute);
QUrl redirectTo = statusCodeV.toUrl();
if (!redirectTo.isEmpty())
{
if (redirectTo.host().isEmpty())
{
const QByteArray newaddr = ("http://"+url.host()+redirectTo.encodedPath()).toAscii();
redirectTo.setEncodedUrl(newaddr);
redirectTo.setHost(url.host());
}
return (downloadURL(redirectTo, data));
}
if (reply->error() != QNetworkReply::NoError)
{
return reply->error();
}
data = reply->readAll();
delete reply;
return QNetworkReply::NoError; }
