QuickGetObj Example

The QuickGetObj method is called to send a GET request and receive the response as an HttpResponse object. C

#include <C_CkHttp.h>
#include <C_CkHttpResponse.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    BOOL success;
    HCkHttp http;
    HCkHttpResponse resp;
    int statusCode;

    success = FALSE;

    //  This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    http = CkHttp_Create();

    //  Send a GET request to download a PDF into an HTTP response object.
    resp = CkHttpResponse_Create();
    success = CkHttp_HttpNoBody(http,"GET","https://www.chilkatsoft.com/hello.pdf",resp);
    if (success == FALSE) {
        printf("%s\n",CkHttp_lastErrorText(http));
        CkHttp_Dispose(http);
        CkHttpResponse_Dispose(resp);
        return;
    }

    //  Get the response status
    statusCode = CkHttpResponse_getStatusCode(resp);
    printf("Response status: %d\n",statusCode);

    //  In this example, we want a 200 status code.
    if (statusCode == 200) {
        //  Save the response body to a file.
        //  Note: This is only for the sake of this example.
        //  It's better to call the Download method to download directly to a file.
        success = CkHttpResponse_SaveBodyBinary(resp,"qa_output/hello.pdf");
        if (success == FALSE) {
            printf("Failed to write output file.\n");
        }
        else {
            printf("Wrote hello.pdf\n");
        }

    }
    else {
        //  Perhaps we have response body with an error message..
        printf("%s\n",CkHttpResponse_bodyStr(resp));

    }



    CkHttp_Dispose(http);
    CkHttpResponse_Dispose(resp);

    }
