QuickGetObj Example

The QuickGetObj method is called to send a GET request and receive the response as an HttpResponse object. Xojo Plugin

Dim success As Boolean
success = False

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

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

// Send a GET request to download a PDF into an HTTP response object.
Dim resp As New Chilkat.HttpResponse
success = http.HttpNoBody("GET","https://www.chilkatsoft.com/hello.pdf",resp)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(http.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

// Get the response status
Dim statusCode As Int32
statusCode = resp.StatusCode
System.DebugLog("Response status: " + Str(statusCode))

// In this example, we want a 200 status code.
If (statusCode = 200) Then
    // Save the response body to a file.
    // Note: This is only for the sake of this example.
    // It's better to call the Download method to download directly to a file.
    success = resp.SaveBodyBinary("qa_output/hello.pdf")
    If (success = False) Then
        System.DebugLog("Failed to write output file.")
    Else
        System.DebugLog("Wrote hello.pdf")
    End If

Else
    // Perhaps we have response body with an error message..
    System.DebugLog(resp.BodyStr)

End If
