Q: Where's the server and what is its domain name (or ip address)?
A: I am using it locally not in some external IP Address, therefore I am using Localhost as the server. So in my C++ Application I am using
uri_builder uri(L"http://localhost:4999/");. I am able to GET, POST and PUT request using Advanced REST SDK client. I want to accomplish the same functionality from a webpage or javascript.
Q: What's the request being made?
A: I want to make GET, POST AND PUT request. Till now I have succeed in making GET request, the issue is while making POST and PUT request.
Q: What is the code using casablanca? If possible, please post a fully compilable snippet.
A: I am using the same source code that is mentioned in this tutorials
http://www.strathweb.com/2012/12/web-api-alternative-self-hosting-http-services-in-native-c-code/
You can download that source code form this GitHub location
https://github.com/filipw/sample-native-cplus-http-service
I can give you a brief overview, what I have written in the main function
