    <p>I am making a Winamp plugin with the single function of sending the details of the song being played over HTTP to a webpage/webserver. I couldn't find anything like this that actually works, so decided to dive in for the first time into C++ and just do it myself.</p> <p>The plugin is a C++ DLL file. I have got to the point where I can output the song title to a windows message box every time a new song is played (not bad for a C++ first-timer! ;) )</p> <p>Where am I stuck:</p> <p>I couldn't find anything to get me in the push notification on C++ direction AT ALL.</p> <p>I tried, without any success, embedding/including HTTP libraries into my DLL to try post requests instead. libcurl, this <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/66625/A-Fully-Featured-Windows-HTTP-Wrapper-in-C" rel="nofollow">library here</a>, and <a href="http://scumways.com/happyhttp/happyhttp.html" rel="nofollow">this library</a> too - but couldn't get any of them to work! I just kept getting linking errors and then some. After a few hours I just gave up.</p> <p>I am a very skilled JavaScript programmer so I thought perhaps using JS to connect into a push notification service can work out but running JS inside C++ looks too complicated to me. Perhaps I'm wrong?</p> <p>Bottom line, I don't know which solution is better (read: easier) to implement - push notifications or post requests?</p> <p>I appreciate any solutions/input/directions/information or whatever you got. I can post code but the only code I have is the part getting the song information from Winamp and that part works.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p><strong>EDIT: I guess it's worth noting I'm using the new VS2012?</strong></p>

    1. COLibcurl seems a nice HTTP implementation. What are the errors you get when trying to use it?

    2. COCan you describe how you tried to include the HTTP libraries? Those are your best hope of a simple solution and linking libraries can be tricky, if you don't know exactly what you are doing.

    3. COThanks for the super prompt reply guys. In the meanwhile I have moved on from C++ to C# using a library called Sharpamp. I still want to bring a solution to this problem though, so I'll free up some time ASAP and get back to you. Cheers.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
