Trying to replace inet with httpclient

 

What is the equivalent to

GetURL()     ---   Is it SEndRequest('GET',...)

HyperlinkToURL

 

Thank You

Hi

Yes you would use the SendRequest to send the GEt Request and then use GetResponseBody to retrieve the returned values.

There are examples in the Help.

Hi. As David answered, yes.

You can always test it. The following will return the html for the page.

integer li_err
string ls_response_body
httpclient lnv_httpclient

lnv_httpclient = create httpclient
li_err = lnv_httpclient.SendRequest("GET", "https://www.google.gr")
messagebox("", lnv_httpclient.getresponsebody(ls_response_body, EncodingUTF8!))
messagebox("", ls_response_body)
if isvalid(lnv_httpclient) then destroy lnv_httpclient

Hi Sufyan;

  Note that the plan is to add the "HyperlinkToURL" method (or equivalent) to the HTTPClient in PB 2022 R2.
