[cpp-netlib-devel] Simple header get example request ? (no iteration)

[Antoine T. <he...@gm...>]

Hi,
  I'm trying to use cpp-netlib 0.9 to implement a simple client.

But I'm having trouble getting a response header , I've read the example
http_client.cpp.

In that example you use an iterator to print all the headers.. however I saw
in :

headers.cpp :

struct response_headers_wrapper { ...

  range_type operator[] (string_type const & key) const {
                return message_.headers().equal_range(key);
            }

I would like to use the headers wrapper to call directly like  :

 using namespace boost::network;
 typedef http::basic_client<http::tags::http_default_8bit_tcp_resolve, 1,
1>    http_client;
 http_client client;
 std::string req_str = "http://localhost/";
 http_client::request request(req_str);
 request << header("Connection", "close");
 http_client::response response = client.get(request);

This section here is my problem :

 headers_range<http_client::response>::type headers OR
 basic_response<Tag>::headers_container_type = response.headers(); ???

 const string<tags::default_string>::type cookie_header("Set-Cookie");
 TYPE ?? = headers[cookie_header]

But really I'm having a hard time figuring out the correct types... with the
tags etc.. Still quite new to me.
Especially the range_type..  I got a feeling it should return
a basic_response<Tag>::headers_container_type .. and that should be the
wrapper? But i'm not sure what the tag should be.. or anyway I feel quite
lost.

A simple example that would illustrate how to get a std::string for a
specific header would help me to understand quite a lot


Thank you!
