Provides instructions for replacing deprecated PText method calls with HttpStr.

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()

verb = "PUT"
url = "https://example.com/"
textData = "This is the HTTP request body"
charset = "utf-8"
contentType = "text/plain"

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The PText method is deprecated:

# responseObj is a CkHttpResponse
responseObj = http.PText(verb,url,textData,charset,contentType,false,false)
if (http.get_LastMethodSuccess() == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end

# ...
# ...

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

responseOut = Chilkat::CkHttpResponse.new()
success = http.HttpStr(verb,url,textData,charset,contentType,responseOut)
if (success == false)
    print http.lastErrorText() + "\n";
    exit
end
