(Visual Basic 6.0) Load JSON Object from HTTP Response Body
Demonstrates how to load the HTTP response body directly into a JSON object.
Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.
Dim success As Long
success = 0
Dim http As New ChilkatHttp
Dim resp As New ChilkatHttpResponse
success = http.HttpStr("GET","https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/sample.json","","","",resp)
If (success = 0) Then
Debug.Print http.LastErrorText
Exit Sub
End If
' A JSON object is JSON that begins with "{" and ends with "}"
Dim json As New ChilkatJsonObject
' If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the JSON from the HttpResponse to the JsonObject, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
' This could save memory for extremely large JSON responses.
resp.UncommonOptions = "TakeResponseBody"
success = resp.GetBodyJson(json)
json.EmitCompact = 0
Debug.Print json.Emit()
' Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
Debug.Print "----"
Debug.Print resp.BodyStr
