We are using Appeon PowerBuilder (Appeon PowerBuilder Cloud Edition 2017 Build 1666).
Currently, the HTTPClient feature is not supported in this version, so we are planning to use OLE objects such as WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1.
Could you please confirm:
Whether HTTPClient can be used in this version through any workaround or alternative approach.
If not, which option would be the best and recommended approach for calling REST APIs from PowerBuilder.
Currently, we are considering the following options:
WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1
MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP
External DLL wrapper (WinHTTP/libcurl)
Please suggest the most suitable and stable approach.
