VB.NET Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Transition from Http.GetHead to Http.HttpNoBody

Provides instructions for replacing deprecated GetHead method calls with HttpNoBody. VB.NET

Dim success As Boolean = False

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http
Dim url As String = "https://www.example.com/"

'  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
'  The GetHead method is deprecated:

Dim resp1 As Chilkat.HttpResponse = http.GetHead(url)
If (http.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine(resp1.StatusCode)


'  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
'  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.

Dim resp2 As New Chilkat.HttpResponse
success = http.HttpNoBody("HEAD",url,resp2)
If (success = False) Then
    Debug.WriteLine(http.LastErrorText)
    Exit Sub
End If

Debug.WriteLine(resp2.StatusCode)
