Hi all,

I need clarifications on using libcurl for the following:

I need to send an http HEAD request shown as below ::

HEAD /mshare/3/30002:12:primary/stream_xNKNVH.mpeg HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.70.1:8080
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Kreatel_IP-STB
getcontentFeatures.dlna.org: 1

The code I wrote (shown below) , sends the HEAD Request in slightly different way:

curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);

CURL* ctx = NULL;

const char *url = "http://192.168.70.1:8080/mshare/3/30002:12:primary/stream_xNKNVH.mpeg" ;

char *returnString;

struct curl_slist *headers = NULL;

ctx = curl_easy_init();

headers = curl_slist_append(headers,"Accept: /");

headers = curl_slist_append(headers,"User-Agent: Kreatel_IP-STB");\

headers = curl_slist_append(headers,"getcontentFeatures.dlna.org: 1");

headers = curl_slist_append(headers,"Pragma:");

headers = curl_slist_append(headers,"Proxy-Connection:");

curl_easy_setopt(ctx,CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER , headers );

curl_easy_setopt(ctx,CURLOPT_NOBODY ,1 );

curl_easy_setopt(ctx,CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);

curl_easy_setopt(ctx,CURLOPT_URL,url );

curl_easy_setopt(ctx,CURLOPT_NOPROGRESS ,1 );

curl_easy_perform(ctx);

curl_easy_cleanup(ctx);

curl_global_cleanup();

The code shown above sends the HEAD Request in slightly different form (shown below)

HEAD http://192.168.70.1:8080/mshare/3/30002:12:primary/stream_xNKNVH.mpeg HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.70.1:8080
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive
Accept: */*
User-Agent: Kreatel_IP-STB
getcontentFeatures.dlna.org: 1

Can any one , share the appropriate code ?
