Library: Net, HTTP support (OMHTTP) Include: omhttp.xin

Declaration

  define function HttpRequestSend
              modifiable  HttpRequest Request
     into  modifiable   HttpResponse  Response
     timeout  value       integer Timeout optional initial {10000}

Argument definitions

Request

is an HTTP request object.

Response

is the HTTP response object.

Timeout

is the maximum number of milliseconds to wait for a communication operation before failing.

Use HttpRequestSend to construct an HTTP message from an HTTP request object and send it from the client to the server. HttpRequestSend then waits for the server response that is then used to populate the HTTP response object argument.

Requirements

You must include the following line at the beginning of your OmniMark program:

  include "omhttp.xin"

Usage Notes

Request is set to an error state if the TCP connection times out.

Response's object values are reset to their default values before being updated by the transaction.

Example

    ; HttpRequestSend 
    include "omhttp.xin"

    process

       local HttpRequest my-Request
       local HttpResponse get-Response

       HttpRequestSetFromUrl my-Request
          from "http://www.omnimark.com/home/home.html"

       HttpRequestSend my-Request into get-Response timeout 60000

       output get-Response{"entity-body"}
