new ClientRequest(options, responseCallback)
Constructor for the object type returned by the request() function. This object type provides the following functions:
- end(): Call this to end the request.
- write(''data'', ''encoding''): FIXME: Not supported by this module! In other hosts, writes data (e.g. for a POST request).
- 'error': If an error occurs. The message is passed as an argument.
- 'response': A response is received from the server. This event is automatically handled by calling responseCallback, if responseCallback is not null.
