Demonstrates KeepSessionLog and SessionLog

The Chilkat Socket component provides properties for keeping a session log making it possible to see the exact bytes received and sent on a TCP/IP or SSL/TLS connection. To enable session logging, set the KeepSessionLog property = _TRUE_. The SessionLogEncoding property controls how binary, non-printable bytes are represented in the log. There are two possible settings: Possible values are "esc" and "hex". The default value is "esc".

When set to "hex", the bytes are encoded as a hexidecimalized string. The "esc" encoding is a C-string like encoding, and is more compact than hex if most of the data to be logged is text. Printable us-ascii chars are unmodified. Common "C" control chars are represented as "\r", "\n", "\t", etc. Non-printable and byte values greater than 0x80 are escaped using a backslash and hex encoding: \xHH. Certain printable chars are backslashed: SPACE, double-quote, single-quote, etc.

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

loSocket = CreateObject('Chilkat.Socket')

* Enable session logging:
loSocket.KeepSessionLog = 1
loSocket.SessionLogEncoding = "esc"

lnTls = 1
lnMaxWaitMillisec = 20000
lnSuccess = loSocket.Connect("www.chilkatsoft.com",443,lnTls,lnMaxWaitMillisec)
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSocket.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSocket
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Send a GET start line to the web server..
lnSuccess = loSocket.SendString("GET /abc123.abc123 HTTP/1.1" + CHR(13) + CHR(10))
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSocket.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSocket
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Send some bytes that will cause an error...
loBinData = CreateObject('Chilkat.BinData')
loBinData.AppendEncoded("01020304","hex")
lnSuccess = loSocket.SendBd(loBinData)

* Read the response up to the first double CRLF:
lcHttpHeader = loSocket.ReceiveUntilMatch(CHR(13) + CHR(10) + CHR(13) + CHR(10))
IF (loSocket.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loSocket.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loSocket
    RELEASE loBinData
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Close the connection with the server
* Wait a max of 20 seconds (20000 millsec)
loSocket.Close(20000)

* Display the session log:
? loSocket.SessionLog

* The Session log will show the exact bytes sent and received.
* In this case, the session log shows:

* 	SendString: GET\x20/abc123.abc123\x20HTTP/1.1\r\n
*
