Summary : Soup, an HTTP library implementation
URL : https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/libsoup
License : LGPLv2
Description : Libsoup is an HTTP library implementation in C. It was originally
: part of a SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) implementation
: called Soup, but the SOAP and non-SOAP parts have now been split
: into separate packages.
:
: libsoup uses the Glib main loop and is designed to work well with
: GTK applications. This enables GNOME applications to access HTTP
: servers on the network in a completely asynchronous fashion, very
: similar to the Gtk+ programming model (a synchronous operation
: mode is also supported for those who want it).
