Transition from Http.PostUrlEncoded to Http.HttpReq

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated PostUrlEncoded method calls with HttpReq.

Sends the following raw HTTP request:

POST /echoPost.asp HTTP/1.1
Host: www.chilkatsoft.com
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Content-Length: 50

company=example&ip=111.111.111.111&url=example.com

Go

    success := false

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    url := "https://www.chilkatsoft.com/echoPost.asp"

    req := chilkat.NewHttpRequest()
    req.AddParam("company","example")
    req.AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111")
    req.AddParam("url","example.com")

    // ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    // The PostUrlEncoded method is deprecated:

    responseObj := http.PostUrlEncoded(url,req)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        return
    }

    // ...
    // ...

    responseObj.DisposeHttpResponse()

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

    req2 := chilkat.NewHttpRequest()
    req2.AddParam("company","example")
    req2.AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111")
    req2.AddParam("url","example.com")

    req2.SetHttpVerb("POST")
    req2.SetContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded")

    resp := chilkat.NewHttpResponse()
    success = http.HttpReq(url,req2,resp)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        req.DisposeHttpRequest()
        req2.DisposeHttpRequest()
        resp.DisposeHttpResponse()
        return
    }

    // Results are contained in the HTTP response object...

    http.DisposeHttp()
    req.DisposeHttpRequest()
    req2.DisposeHttpRequest()
    resp.DisposeHttpResponse()
