Sending http and https requests from C/C++

Question

Is there any other variants to send http/https request from C/C++ except using libCurl? I can't figure out how to use libCurl with OpenSSL :( I want to interact with YoutubeAPI.

Answer 1

SFML has a nice, simple to use in-built HTTP implementation. You can find a tutorial here. It looks to me that for youtube you can simply use POST - look here.

Answer 2

Perhaps these two examples will be of help to you?
