Download from a URL with C++

I'm playing around with C++ for the first time in years. Making an app using Qt, with the Qt IDE. I want to make an app to integrate with the Flickr API. I've got to the point where i need to make a call to a URL.

Flickr API:

http://flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getInfo&api_key=987654321&auth_token=9765984&api_sig=8f3870be274f6c49b3e31a0c6728957f

Right then ..... I'm used to .NET so this would normally be easy. Is there something built into Qt to allow me to do this or do i need a C++ web API. If开发者_运维知识库 I do need an API can you recommend one that would do the job.

Kind Regards

Use QNetworkAccessManager. The page has an example.

we do use Qt but ended up using the cURLpp C++ wrapper for libCURL (http://curlpp.org/) for a similar project.
