Native Development

Hi,

I tried to find RenderingSession and HttpConnection classes alternatives in the Native SDK but without success. I just need some kind of web browser control and simple http connection to download files over the Internet. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Kal

I don't think we have anything ready in Native SDK for handling http (though you can write it from scratch in C). Use AIR.

Hi, 

Please see navigator_invoke method in include/bps/navigator.h. 

in the ndk, to call up the browser, youi can pass in a URI to that method. 

If you're just looking to grab data via HTTP, we have libcurl present. 

Please see include/curl/curl.h.

Anhu has told you what to use.

If you want to open a web page, use the navigator_invoke method to tell the native browser to open a URL that you specifiy.

If you need to send/receive data over HTTP in your application, you can use libcurl.
