|
||
overview of the range of features offered, and some general guidelines
|
||
for using the neon API.</p><p>neon aims to provide a modern, flexible, and simple API
|
||
in the C programming language for implementing HTTP and WebDAV
|
||
support. The WebDAV functionality is entirely separate from the basic
|
||
HTTP functionality; neon can be used simply as an HTTP client library,
|
||
ignoring the WebDAV support if desired.</p></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="index.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"> </td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="features.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">neon HTTP/WebDAV client library </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Feature list</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
