typedef raptor_www

Description

Functions

raptor_new_www ()

raptor_www *
raptor_new_www (raptor_world *world);

Constructor - create a new raptor_www object.

Parameters

world

raptor_world object

 

Returns

a new raptor_www or NULL on failure.


raptor_new_www_with_connection ()

raptor_www *
raptor_new_www_with_connection (raptor_world *world,
                                void *connection);

Constructor - create a new raptor_www object over an existing WWW connection.

At present this only works with a libcurl CURL handle object when raptor is compiled with libcurl suppport. Otherwise the connection is ignored. This allows such things as setting up special flags on the curl handle before passing into the constructor.

Parameters

world

raptor_world object

 

connection

external WWW connection object.

 

Returns

a new raptor_www object or NULL on failure.


raptor_free_www ()

void
raptor_free_www (raptor_www *www);

Destructor - destroy a raptor_www object.

Parameters

www

WWW object.
