HTTPS links will fail to load (through xmlpp)
Hi, I can't get HTTPS links working in xmlpp, and on their mailing list I was told it seems more like libxml2 issue.
Will work just fine:
xmlpp::TextReader reader{"http://lyrics.wikia.com/api.php?action=lyrics&fmt=xml&artist=boa&song=duvet"};
Will throw a cryptic error "Cannot instantiate underlying libxml2 structure":
xmlpp::TextReader reader{"https://lyrics.wikia.com/api.php?action=lyrics&fmt=xml&artist=boa&song=duvet"};
Sorry that the errors aren't more libxml2 specific, I don't know how I'd go about reproducing it in pure libxml2.
Is HTTPS even supported?
