custom_header=header 

HTTP headers are of the form header-name: header-value.

• HTTP, HTTPS

None

When you specify custom HTTP headers, the client includes the headers with every HTTP request it sends. To specify more than one custom header, use custom_header multiple times, using the semicolon (;) as a divider. For example: custom_header=header1:value1; customer_header=header2:value2

Custom headers are useful when your synchronization client interacts with a third-party tool that requires custom headers.

Some HTTP proxies require all requests to contain special headers. The following example sets a custom HTTP header called MyProxyHdr to the value ProxyUser in an embedded SQL or C++ UltraLite application:

info.stream = "http";
info.stream_parms = 
  "host=www.myhost.com;proxy_host=www.myproxy.com;
  custom_header=MyProxyHdr:ProxyUser";
