(DataFlex) Async Methods Returning an String

Demonstrates how to call an asynchronous method that returns a string. This example sends an HTTPS GET request to a URL and gets the HTML response.

Procedure Test
    Handle hoHttp
    Variant vTask
    Handle hoTask
    Boolean iSuccess
    String sHtml
    String sTemp1
    Integer iTemp1
    Boolean bTemp1

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

    Get Create (RefClass(cComChilkatHttp)) To hoHttp
    If (Not(IsComObjectCreated(hoHttp))) Begin

        Get Create (RefClass(cComChilkatTask)) To hoTask
        Set pvComObject Of hoTask To vTask

    Get ComLastMethodSuccess Of hoHttp To bTemp1

    // Start the background task.
    Get ComRun Of hoTask To iSuccess
    If (Not iSuccess) Begin
        Get ComLastErrorText Of hoTask To sTemp1
        Showln sTemp1
        Send Destroy of hoTask
        Procedure_Return
    End

    // The application is now free to do anything else
    // while the email is being sent.

    // For this example, we'll simply sleep and periodically
    // check to see if the HTTPS GET if finished.
    While ((ComFinished(hoTask)) <> True)
        // Sleep 100 ms.
        Send ComSleepMs To hoTask 100
    Loop

    // A finished task could be one that was canceled, aborted, or truly finished.  

    // If the task was "canceled", it was canceled prior to actually starting.  This could
    // happen if the task was canceled while waiting in a thread pool queue to be scheduled by Chilkat's
    // background thread pool scheduler.  

    // If the task was "aborted", it indicates that it was canceled while running in a background thread.  
    // The ResultErrorText will likely indicate that the task was aborted.

    // If the task "completed", then it ran to completion, but the actual success/failure of the method
    // is determined by the result obtained via a GetResult* method.  (A "completed" task will
    // have a StatusInt equal to 7.   If the task finished, but was not completed, then it must've
    // been aborted or canceled:
    Get ComStatusInt Of hoTask To iTemp1
    If (iTemp1 <> 7) Begin
        Showln "Task did not complete."
        Get ComStatus Of hoTask To sTemp1
        Showln "task status: " sTemp1
        Send Destroy of hoTask
        Procedure_Return
    End

    // The QuickGetStr method returns a string.  Therefore, after the task is finished,
    // we can get the string result by calling GetResultString.  This is the return value had
    // we called QuickGetStr synchronously.
    Get ComGetResultString Of hoTask To sHtml

    Showln sHtml

    Send Destroy of hoTask
