iPhone: How to send a HTTP request to a web service using Xcode

Question

How to send a HTTP request to a web service using Objective-C ? I need to fetch some data from my MySQL DB, so I need to send the request so I could fetch the data.

Answer 1

ASIHTTPRequest is a great and simple framework, so I second the recommendations from other posts. To be complete though, you should also know that you can do this natively in Objective-C without another framework. Look at the Apple documentation for the NSURLConnection and NSURLConnectionRequest classes for background.
