Hello!

I need to submit data to HTTP server using UTF8 encoding. I found out that libcurl for haskell can work with Data.ByteString - but it seems not able to work with Data.ByteString.UTF8.

Can you please advice, how do I convert Data.ByteString.UTF8 into Data.ByteString and visa versa?

It's the same type, so you can encode it using Data.ByteString.UTF8 and send it over the network as a plain old ByteString. On the receiving end, you read it as a plain ByteString and then interpret it as a utf-8 encoded ByteString.

Thank you in advance!
