Perl

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

Perl

use chilkat();

$success = 0;

$http = chilkat::CkHttp->new();

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

$req = chilkat::CkHttpRequest->new();
$req->AddParam("company","example");
$req->AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111");
$req->AddParam("url","example.com");

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The PostUrlEncoded method is deprecated:

# responseObj is a HttpResponse
$responseObj = $http->PostUrlEncoded($url,$req);
if ($http->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# ...
# ...

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 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::CkHttpRequest->new();
$req2->AddParam("company","example");
$req2->AddParam("ip","111.111.111.111");
$req2->AddParam("url","example.com");

$req2->put_HttpVerb("POST");
$req2->put_ContentType("application/x-www-form-urlencoded");

$resp = chilkat::CkHttpResponse->new();
$success = $http->HttpReq($url,$req2,$resp);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

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