<?php

$success = 0;

$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");

$resp = new COM("Chilkat.HttpResponse");
$success = $http->HttpStr('GET','https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/inventory.xml','','','',$resp);
if ($success == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

$xml = new COM("Chilkat.Xml");

// 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);

print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
print '----' . "\n";
print $resp->BodyStr . "\n";
