Description: The W3C WWW library - documentation
libwww is a highly modular, general-purpose client side Web API
written in C for Unix and Windows (Win32). It's well suited for
both small and large applications, like browser/editors, robots,
batch tools, etc. Pluggable modules provided with libwww include
complete HTTP/1.1 (with caching, pipelining, PUT, POST, Digest
Authentication, deflate, etc), MySQL logging, FTP, HTML/4,
XML (expat), RDF (SiRPAC), and much more.
.
Unlike other libraries for web access, libwww can use a single
select() loop to wait for multiple simultaneous connections. With
glibwww, the libwww event loop can be integrated into the glib event
loop, making it very easy to develop cross-platform GTK+ web
applications.
.
It is quite difficult to write programs that use libwww, due to its
complexity. If you do not need its advanced features, have a look at
libcurl.
.
This package contains the libwww documentation in the form of a
snapshot of the pages at <http://www.w3.org/Library/>.
