Hi all, I have a music server on my Lan at this location

http://myipaddress:9000/jsonrpc.js

and I want to post a request in the format

{\"id\":1,\"method\":\"slim.request\",\"params\":[null,[\"serverstatus\"]]}

As this program needs to run on an Android device I want to do it in C++ ( I don't want to do it in Java ) Any ideas how I can achieve this without using external libraries ?

What I have tried:

I've tried creating a socket and writing raw bytes to it but unsurprisingly I get a bad request reponse
