HTTP Session Logging

Demonstrates how to use the SessionLogFilename property to log HTTP requests and responses to a file. PowerBuilder

integer li_rc
oleobject loo_Http
string ls_Html

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

loo_Http = create oleobject
li_rc = loo_Http.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Http")
if li_rc < 0 then
    destroy loo_Http
    MessageBox("Error","Connecting to COM object failed")
    return
end if

//  Set the SessionLogFilename property so that the Chilkat HTTP component
//  logs the exact HTTP requests and responses to a file.

//  The SessionLogFilename may be used with any of the HTTP
//  methods for sending GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, HEAD, etc.
loo_Http.SessionLogFilename = "c:/temp/httpSessionLog.txt"

//  Try a simple HTTP GET and then examine the session log:
ls_Html = loo_Http.QuickGetStr("http://www.chilkatsoft.com/httpTest/abc.html")
if loo_Http.LastMethodSuccess <> 1 then
    Write-Debug loo_Http.LastErrorText
    destroy loo_Http
    return
end if

//  The contents of the session log file after doing 
//  the GET request:
