What to learn to be able to send files online using c++ on windows ?
i know c++, and i got a program that does some benchmark and saves into a text file, i want that text file to be sent to me after the benchmarking is done, so what should i search for ? tried searching found something called sockets and something about server and clients in linux, kinda dunno what to search for.
this isn’t a homework, just want to do it for fun xD, and would help me in future if i want someone who knows nothing about whats happening to test something for me (the file would have all i need and it will be sent to me).
I think you better off just emailing the file after a benchmark is done, and doing it using some bash or Python scripting rather than C++ or any other low level language. Here is an example of sending email using Python. Another option would be to upload to the FTP or use rsync to transfer file over SSH. And in any case, do not write your own client-server application for this.
If you still want to use C++, here is an example of sending email using POCO.
