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)。

你可以使用embeddedRest库。它是一个轻量级的头文件库。所以很容易将它包含到你的项目中，它不需要编译，因为里面没有。cpp文件。
从自述文件中请求示例。Md from repo:
#include "UrlRequest.hpp"
//...
UrlRequest request;
request.host("api.vk.com");
const auto countryId = 1;
const auto count = 1000;
request.uri("/method/database.getCities",{
{ "lang", "ru" },
{ "country_id", countryId },
{ "count", count },
{ "need_all", "1" },
});
request.addHeader("Content-Type: application/json");
auto response = std::move(request.perform());
if (response.statusCode() == 200) {
cout << "status code = " << response.statusCode() << ", body = *" << response.body() << "*" << endl;
}else{
cout << "status code = " << response.statusCode() << ", description = " << response.statusDescription() << endl;
}
MS的CppRest SDK是我刚刚发现的，大约半小时后，我的第一个简单的web服务调用工作。相比之下，在这里提到的其他地方，我甚至无法安装任何东西，我不得不说，这是相当令人印象深刻的
https://github.com/microsoft/cpprestsdk
向下滚动，点击文档，然后点击入门教程，你将有一个简单的应用程序运行在任何时间。
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。
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。
