var
success: Integer;
http: TChilkatHttp;
resp: TChilkatHttpResponse;
xml: TChilkatXml;

begin
success := 0;

http := TChilkatHttp.Create(Self);

resp := TChilkatHttpResponse.Create(Self);
success := http.HttpStr('GET','https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/inventory.xml','','','',resp.ControlInterface);
if (success = 0) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(http.LastErrorText);
    Exit;
  end;

xml := TChilkatXml.Create(Self);

//  If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the XML from the HttpResponse to the Xml, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
//  This could save memory for extremely large XML responses.
resp.UncommonOptions := 'TakeResponseBody';

resp.GetBodyXml(xml.ControlInterface);

Memo1.Lines.Add(xml.GetXml());

//  Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
Memo1.Lines.Add('----');
Memo1.Lines.Add(resp.BodyStr);
