Usage (server side): Define a NULL-terminated array of type-handler pairs, each with a media type and a the handler function: struct http_post_handlers my_handlers[] = { { "image/jpg", jpeg_handler }, { "image/ *", image_handler }, { "text/html", html_handler }, { "text/ *", text_handler }, { "text/ *;*", text_handler }, { "POST", generic_POST_handler }, { "PUT", generic_PUT_handler }, { "DELETE", generic_DELETE_handler }, { NULL } }; Note that '*' can be used as a wildcard and some media types may have optional parameters (after ';'). Register the plugin and the handlers: struct soap soap; soap_init(&soap); soap_register_plugin_arg(&soap, http_post, my_handlers); ... ... = soap_copy(&soap); // copies plugin too but not its data: plugin data is shared since fcopy is not set ... soap_done(&soap); // detach plugin (calls plugin->fdelete) A POST handler function is triggered by the media type in the http_post_handlers table. Use http_get_http_body() as below to retrieve HTTP POST body data: int image_handler(struct soap *soap) { const char *buf; size_t len; // if necessary, check type in soap->http_content if (soap->http_content && !soap_tag_cmp(soap->http_content, "image/gif") return 404; buf = soap_get_http_body(soap, &len); if (!buf) return soap->error; soap_end_recv(soap); // ... process image in buf[0..len-1] // reply with empty HTTP OK response: return soap_send_empty_response(soap, SOAP_OK); } This function should also produce a valid HTTP response, for example: if (we want to return HTML) soap_response(soap, SOAP_HTML); // use this to return HTML... else { soap->http_content = "image/jpeg"; // a jpeg image soap_response(soap, SOAP_FILE); // SOAP_FILE sets custom http content } ... soap_send(soap, "..."); // example HTML ... soap_end_send(soap); soap_closesock(soap); // close, but keep open only with HTTP keep-alive The soap_send(soap, char*) and soap_send_raw(soap, char*, size_t) can be used to return content from server. Usage (client side): char *buf; // to hold the HTTP response body data size_t len; ... if (soap_post_connect(soap, "URL", "SOAP action or NULL", "media type") || soap_send(soap, ...) || soap_end_send(soap)) ... error ... if (soap_begin_recv(&soap) || soap_http_body(&soap, &buf, &len) || soap_end_recv(&soap)) ... error ... // ... use buf[0..len-1] soap_closesock(soap); // close, but keep open only with HTTP keep-alive soap_end(soap); // also deletes buf content The soap_send(soap, char*) and soap_send_raw(soap, char*, size_t) can be used to send content to the server as shown above. */ #include "httppost.h" #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif const char http_post_id[14] = HTTP_POST_ID;
