How to Convert JSON Objects to XML using C/C++
Jul 31, 2023
Data conversions should extremely simple and equally fast. Using the below code, you can rapidly convert your JSON data to XML format in a quick API request — and you can do so for free with a free-tier API key.
Start by installing libcurl in your project:
libcurl/7.75.0
And then use the below code to structure your request:
CURL *curl;
CURLcode res;
curl = curl_easy_init();
if(curl) {
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, "POST");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://api.cloudmersive.com/convert/json/to/xml");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1L);
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_DEFAULT_PROTOCOL, "https");
struct curl_slist *headers = NULL;
headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
headers = curl_slist_append(headers, "Apikey: YOUR-API-KEY-HERE");
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, headers);
const char *data = "0=%3C&1=o&2=b&3=j&4=e&5=c&6=t&7=%3E";
curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, data);
res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
}
curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
You can now make up to 800 conversions per month with no additional commitment whatsoever. Easy!
