<?php

use Chilkat2\Http;

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

$http = new Http();
$statusCode = 0;

// Specifiy a session log file so we can see the exact request/response
$http->SessionLogFilename = 'c:/aaworkarea/sessionLog.txt';

// Perhaps add a custom header or two..
$http->SetRequestHeader('x-exz-date', '20201012T235046Z');
$http->SetRequestHeader('x-exz-id', '1234');

// Send a DELETE request to https://www.example.com/someting?param1=123&param2=abc
$url = 'https://www.example.com/someting?param1=123&param2=abc';
try {
    $reponseBodyStr = $http->QuickDeleteStr($url);
} catch (\Chilkat2\Exception $e) {
    // This will happen if the response status code was 400 or greater,
    // or if the request could not be sent, or if no response was received.
    $statusCode = $http->LastStatus;
    echo 'Response status: ', $statusCode, "\n";

    if ($statusCode == 0) {
        // There was an error in communications.
        echo $e->getMessage(), "\n";
    } else {
        // We received a response status code indicating failure.
        // Examine the response body.
        echo $http->LastResponseBody, "\n";
    }

    exit;
}

// The DELETE request that is sent looks like this.
// The Accept and Accept-Encoding headers are automatically added by default.

//     DELETE /someting?param1=123&param2=abc HTTP/1.1
//     Host: www.example.com
//     Accept: */*
//     Accept-Encoding: gzip
//     x-exz-date: 20201012T235046Z
//     x-exz-id: 1234

// Get the response status
$statusCode = $http->LastStatus;
echo 'Response status: ', $statusCode, "\n";

// Show the response body
echo $reponseBodyStr, "\n";
