Is there any C++ Library that can download data from internet when we provide a URL? I am currently learning C++ and wish to start from making use of such library in my application. Please help.
Thanks
Yes, libcurl.

I understand that this isn't a really common use case, but my team has built a C++ UWP static library and I'd like to link it into an existing C++ console app. However, I can't find anywhere that says that this is possible, or even anyone that's asked this question. If I try naively adding a reference, it just says that "the two platforms are incompatible" (I'd imagine one is targeting UWP and the other just targets Windows).
Does anyone know if this is possible? Would save me a pretty big rewrite.
Thanks!
If your library is not portable is not possible.
If you have access code to the code of the UWP library try to port al the code to portable library and try it again.

Is there a simple library that I can use to download files Asynchronously from the internet with pause/resume controls.
You didn't mention OS you use. In case of Linux/Unix you can use libcurl. This library is pretty simple in usage and powerful at the same time. It has curl_easy_pause method that does pausing and unpausing of current connection. Please see details at http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/curl_easy_pause.html. Here you can find examples of working with libcurl.
For c++ you may see my library sample : main.cpp
Say I have this file:
http://www.example.com/somepic.png
Is there a cross platform C or C++ library that could easily allow me to download it to a specified directory?
Thanks
You can use libcurl to do this.
Besides itself, the GNU libmicrohttpd Web site lists several alternatives.
i am working on php...!!
Is it possible to link HTML page to c++/c at back end.
means instead of php script i want to run c/c++
if Yes How??
Check CGI and FastCGI technologies.
CGI is your best bet if the C++ program is an executable. If you want to use a C++ library from PHP you will need to write an extension. An example of this can be found at http://devzone.zend.com/article/4486
What you are after is CGI.
I recommend the book Extending and Embedding PHP by Sara Goleman link
It is probably the best resource I have found on linking C++ libraries / routines to user space PHP functions.
Hey, Can you recommend me what C++ library or classes are available for sending email via SMTP in C++. I'm on Windows platform. I need a library which supports attachments and SSL connections. What are the options available. I'm not into implementing my own :)
Regards
EDIT: Oh I forgot to mention I'm using Visual C++ 6
I found a project that might be what you're looking for: lib smtp.
I've had good luck with the ATL class CSMTPConnection, but I don't think it supports SSL.
Try Ultimate-TCP/IP, free on Code Project - it includes support for SMTP and you can just compile in the parts you want. It's very good.
You don't need any library. (never on Windows)
Just use Winsock or COM
