Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

var http = new CkHttp();

var resp = new CkHttpResponse();
success = http.HttpStr("GET","https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/inventory.xml","","","",resp);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(http.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

var xml = new CkXml();

// 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);

console.log(xml.GetXml());

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
console.log("----");
console.log(resp.BodyStr);
