An HTTP Control/Component by Coalesys, Inc.

HTTP Client Library

The Coalesys HTTP Client is a free component which was created to address the needs of developers who wish to perform HTTP requests and examine HTTP responses using a simple, high performance COM object. Implemented as an ActiveX DLL, the Coalesys HTTP Client was written entirely in Visual C++ and is dependency-free, not requiring any MFC, ATL or WinInet DLLs. It leverages the same technology found in the Coalesys Winsock Library.

With the Coalesys HTTP Client you can:

• Use any valid HTTP Request method (GET, HEAD, POST, etc.).


• Connect to a server on any port.


• Customize Request headers.


• Configure for use of a proxy server.


• Retrieve Response Status, Headers and Body as strings.


• Use in any compatible ActiveX environment, including those that do not support events (such as ASP).
