Delphi DLL Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Http.PFile to Http.HttpFile

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated PFile method calls with HttpFile. Delphi DLL

var
success: Boolean;
http: HCkHttp;
verb: PWideChar;
url: PWideChar;
localFilePath: PWideChar;
contentType: PWideChar;
responseObj: HCkHttpResponse;
responseOut: HCkHttpResponse;

begin
success := False;

http := CkHttp_Create();

verb := 'POST';
url := 'https://example.com/';
localFilePath := 'c:/temp/requestBodyContent.dat';
contentType := 'application/octet-stream';

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  The PFile method is deprecated:

responseObj := CkHttp_PFile(http,verb,url,localFilePath,contentType,False,False);
if (CkHttp_getLastMethodSuccess(http) = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkHttp__lastErrorText(http));
    Exit;
  end;

//  ...
//  ...

CkHttpResponse_Dispose(responseObj);

//  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
//  Do the equivalent using HttpFile.
//  Your application creates a new, empty HttpResponse object which is passed 
//  in the last argument and filled upon success.

responseOut := CkHttpResponse_Create();
success := CkHttp_HttpFile(http,verb,url,localFilePath,contentType,responseOut);
if (success = False) then
  begin
    Memo1.Lines.Add(CkHttp__lastErrorText(http));
    Exit;
