read image from url

Hi, can anyone point me a library that can read image to memory from a
URL? It is very easy in Java, but it is hard to find an complete
solution in c/c++.

If you start off writing a program with no intention of prohibiting
yourself from using C++ features, and still end up with a finished
product which doesn't use C++ features, then it's quite like setting out
to design a race car, and ending up with a car that's also road-worthy.

I *never* hesitate to use C++ features, (and I actually use them quite

The 5 consecutive characters, "C/C++", refer to "C or C++".

Makes me think of how race car manufacturers try to get a "road

race vehicles, not road vehicles, but if they can get a road-worthiness

Do we a favor and go away

C and C++ differ at a level more fundamental than whatever you think
the "extended features which C++ provides over C" are.

You can call it a C program, but you'd be wrong. You can call it
"Fortran" or "Lisp", which don't use the "extended features which C++
provides," but you would probably be wrong then. C and C++ differ at a
level more fundamental than whatever you think the "extended features
which C++ provides over C" are.

* Martin Ambuhl:

A "jacob" that recommends an LCC solution, /could/ that be Jacob Navia?

Assuming it is, this group is great fun. It would be like someone
over in clc++ calling Bjarne Stroustrup an idiot.

What is there in saying C/C++ and C or C++?

I don't want to start an
argument. If you can understand what other's want to say, that's
enough. You are brilliant.

That's a lengthy discussion with no particular reason.

The quickest answer to the OP's question is: Not in standard C, but
in the Navia compiler, if you really want to stoop to that level.

Reasonable people should understand when my help text states that my
application runs on "Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2K/XP". The same people may
well think of a cross-breed or mutation when they come across the term
"horse/donkey".

Note for killfilers: this is the same person as "JKop" and "Tomas".

He hasn't made that many schoolboy errors, actually. In fact, the worst
error he's made so far that I can recall is this one - i.e. describing the
differences between C and C++ as "minor". And the second-worst is in
picking a fight with Martin Ambuhl.
In fact, Frederick Gotham does seem rather bellicose all round, which
(together with his fondness for dragging C++ comparisons into C
discussions in a C newsgroup) is a bit of a shame, since he otherwise
seems like quite a reasonable fellow.

Yes, where rational people are concerned, it's the /behaviour/ that is
being
killfiled, not the person. If someone wishes to ameliorate their
behaviour,
a quick ID change may well help facilitate that and enable them to have
meaningful interactions with people in whose killfiles they would
otherwise
have rotted. In cases where former trolls are attempting to rehabilitate
themselves under a new name and we happen to notice (e.g. through some
trick of consistent misspelling or whatever), it may be more constructive
to pretend we didn't.

This people are NOT representative of this group nor of the
majority of C users.
