OK, really dumb and simple question here. Of course I apologize if this
simple topic is covered in the docs ...

I'm using libcurl in windows as a dll and I'm calling it from another dll.
My only purpose for it is to hit a 'monitoring' website URL and I don't
want any data back at all ... I don't care about the response and I don't
want to write it to stdout or a file at all. In fact, I think the default
behavior of writing to stdout is causing some issues for the program that's
calling my dll.

So my question is: is there anyway in libcurl to just tell it not to bother
writing the response anywhere? Obviously this option seems dumb since why
bother sending a request to a URL if you don't really want the response,
but in my case it's true. I check the res code to make sure I got through,
but I don't care about the actual response. If I was on a unix box, i'd
probably just open /dev/null and point the write callback there, but I'm
not sure what to do in Windows? Any thoughts?

Thanks!
Josh
