...

- The preprocessor macro HTTPc_CFG_HDR_TX_EN must be set to DEF_ENABLED.
- HTTPc_HDR objects must be used to set up headed fields to add.
- Two methods are offered by the µC/HTTP-client stack to add header fields:
1. 1. Passing a header fields table to to the µC/HTTP-client stack
  2. Using a hook function that will ask the application for each header field to add to the request.

...

With the first option, before sending the HTTP request, the application can prepare a table of HTTPc_HDR objects that the µC/HTTP-client will include in the request. The API function HTTPc_ReqSetParam must be used with the parameter type HTTPc_PARAM_TYPE_REQ_HDR_TBL to pass out the table to the µC/HTTP-client stack.

Using a Hook Function

The Second option is to set up a hook function. The hook function will be called by the µC/HTTP-client core to add a Header Field to the request. The hook function will be called until it return DEF_YES to notified the µC/HTTP-client stack that all the fields have been added. The API function HTTPc_ReqSetParam must be used with the parameter type HTTPc_PARAM_TYPE_REQ_HDR_HOOK to pass out hook function pointer to the µC/HTTP-client stack.
