有什么方法可以简单地用c++发出HTTP请求吗?具体来说，我想下载一个页面(一个API)的内容，并检查内容，看看它是否包含1或0。是否也可以将内容下载到字符串中?

对于这个答案，我参考了Software_Developer的答案。通过重新构建代码，我发现一些部分已弃用(gethostbyname())或不为操作提供错误处理(创建套接字，发送一些东西)。

如果你想要c++的解决方案，你可以使用Qt，它有一个QHttp类。
你可以查看文档:
http->setHost("qt.nokia.com");
http->get(QUrl::toPercentEncoding("/index.html"));
Qt还有很多可以在普通c++应用程序中使用的功能。
我也有同样的问题。Libcurl真的很完整。如果您需要c++库，可能会对c++包装器curlpp感兴趣。neon是另一个有趣的C库，它也支持WebDAV。
如果你使用c++， curlpp看起来很自然。源代码发行版中提供了许多示例。 要获取URL的内容，你可以这样做(从示例中提取):
// Edit : rewritten for cURLpp 0.7.3
// Note : namespace changed, was cURLpp in 0.7.2 ...
#include <curlpp/cURLpp.hpp>
#include <curlpp/Options.hpp>
// RAII cleanup
curlpp::Cleanup myCleanup;
// Send request and get a result.
// Here I use a shortcut to get it in a string stream ...
std::ostringstream os;
os << curlpp::options::Url(std::string("http://example.com"));
string asAskedInQuestion = os.str();
参见curlpp源代码分发中的示例目录，有很多更复杂的情况，以及使用curlpp的简单完整的最小情况。

如果您正在寻找在多个平台(Linux, Windows和Mac)支持的c++中的HTTP客户端库，以使用Restful web服务。您可以有以下选项。
QT网络库-允许应用程序发送网络请求并接收回复 c++ REST SDK -一个新兴的支持PPL的第三方HTTP库 Libcurl -它可能是本地世界中使用最多的http库之一。
你可能想要检查c++ REST SDK(代号“Casablanca”)。http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj950081.aspx
使用c++ REST SDK，您可以更轻松地从c++应用程序连接到HTTP服务器。
使用的例子:
#include <iostream>
#include <cpprest/http_client.h>
using namespace web::http; // Common HTTP functionality
using namespace web::http::client; // HTTP client features
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
http_client client("http://httpbin.org/");
http_response response;
// ordinary `get` request
response = client.request(methods::GET, "/get").get();
std::cout << response.extract_string().get() << "\n";
// working with json
response = client.request(methods::GET, "/get").get();
std::cout << "url: " << response.extract_json().get()[U("url")] << "\n";
}
c++ REST SDK是微软的一个项目，用于使用现代异步c++ API设计的本地代码进行基于云的客户端-服务器通信。
