(Ruby) Transition from Http.GetHead to Http.HttpNoBody

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated GetHead method calls with HttpNoBody.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

Chilkat Ruby Downloads install from rubygems.org gem install chilkat or download... Ruby Library for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux

require 'chilkat'

http = Chilkat::CkHttp.new()
url = "https://www.example.com/"

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The GetHead method is deprecated:

# resp1 is a CkHttpResponse
resp1 = http.GetHead(url)
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print resp1.get_StatusCode().to_s() + "\n";

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Do the equivalent using HttpNoBody.
# Your application creates a new, empty response object which is passed 
# in the last argument and filled with the HTTP response upon success.

resp2 = Chilkat::CkHttpResponse.new()
success = http.HttpNoBody("HEAD",url,resp2)
if (success == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

print resp2.get_StatusCode().to_s() + "\n";
