    Overview

    The fpHttpClient unit provides a complete HTTP client implementation for making HTTP requests. It supports all standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, OPTIONS, HEAD), SSL/TLS connections, redirects, authentication, cookies, and form posting including file uploads.

    The main classes are TFPCustomHTTPClient (base class) and TFPHTTPClient (with published properties). The unit also supports Server-Sent Events through TCustomHTTPEventSource and proxy connections through TProxyData.
