QtWebEngine : Load URL with HTTPPost

Re: QtWebEngine : Load URL with HTTPPost

I want a function to request url while posting some data.
With WebKit, I could use the following:

With class WebView derived from QtWebView :

void WebView::loadPostUrl(const QUrl &url, QByteArray postdata)
{
m_initialUrl = url;
QNetworkRequest request = QNetworkRequest(url);
request.setHeader(QNetworkRequest::ContentTypeHeader, "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
load(request, QNetworkAccessManager::PostOperation, postdata);
}
Since QtWebEngine does interact with QNetworkAccessManager how can we have the same functionalities with QtWebEngine ?

Thanks

Simply: It seems the .load() function only takes 1 argument (the URL) - how are we supposed to pass POST data array and indicate that it is a POST Operation ?

I also recently discovered that I've got to port from QWebPage to QWebEnginePage. The 2 things that I were able to do in prior versions (< 5.6):

Send HTTP Post data via load(QNetworkRequest)
Intercept HTTP responses from the server (via setNetworkAccessManager)

How can I do those things with QWebEngine? And if I cannot achieve the same functionality what are proper workarounds?
