Introduction | ^ TOP |
wxHTTPEngine is a library of classes to easily allow your wxWidgets software to work with web sites.
wxHyperlinkCtrl is a hyperlink control for wxWidgets. Features include underline and color rollovers, the ability to perform your own Left, Middle, and Right click events to perform your own custom event handling and ability to open a link in a new Internet Explorer browser window. Static GotoURL() function may be used outside of the wxHyperlinkCtrl.
wxHTTPBuilder is a complete HTTP protocol builder extended from the wxHTTP class. Features include the ability to build headers such as basic authentication and cookies, ability to populate and url encode the GET and POST query strings, and ability to handle multipart data (files). May connect through a HTTP proxy server with or without user authentication.
wxHTTPBuilderThread is a special thread that may be used in your wxWidgets application to allow the user to cancel a wxHTTPBuilder connection. Keep in mind, this may not be the best way to implement threads in your application. If anything, use the source as a guide.
wxAuthenticateDlg is a simple dialog to to get a username and password from the user for Basic HTTP Authentication.
wxPleaseWaitDlg is a simple dialog similar to the wxProgressDlg.
wxProxySettingsDlg is a simple proxy settings dialog with optional exceptions textbox and requires authentication checkbox with username and password fields.
