REST Api

[ErosOlmi]

Dear DirectuX,

thanks for reporting misleading help on some functions and () at the end.
I will fix parsing and help. And yes, some methods are not colored in thinAir, I will try to fix this.

Regarding your try ... did you check "HTTPS_Rest_Api.tbasic" example?
It uses .getAllResponseHeaders and .getResponseHeader... methods.
Was that example working for you?

Let me know.

Hi,

misleading help on some functions

That is sadly too common to many language, thinBasic manages it rather well. In my opinion php.net 's manual is a good example to follow, regarding documentation; especially "User Contributed Notes" on each page.

And yes, some methods are not colored in thinAir, I will try to fix this.

Note:I've just discovered that there is an autocomplete function in thinAir, it is not enabled by default. Didn't find/looked for the dictionary to add keywords.

Regarding your try ... did you check "HTTPS_Rest_Api.tbasic" example?
It uses .getAllResponseHeaders and .getResponseHeader... methods.
Was that example working for you?

Precisely, I started here. Then I coded from empty script with the help of the online manual. In the example, status is 0 too. But as it is a web-online 2017 example, I didn't expect it to still work. Yet, it is by means of it I found the parenthesis are unwanted.

I'm studying the practicability of talking with an OrientDB Server instance using the OrientDB RESTful HTTP protocol : http://orientdb.com/docs/last/OrientDB-REST.html

Practicability is ok. I proceed further.

Thanks again

And, can I assume that after initializing an <ServerXMLHTTPRequest> object, I can set request headers before opening a request ? that is to say: use <ServerXMLHTTPRequest>.SetRequestHeader(strHeaderName, strValue) before <ServerXMLHTTPRequest>.Open(bstrMethod, bstrUrl [, bAsync [, bstrUser, bstrPassword]])

One more thing,
can you answer this ?

ServerXMLHTTPRequest object takes advance of the Microsoft IServerXMLHTTPRequest2 object
Get more info at thinBasic help file https://www.thinbasic.com/public/pro...tml?msxml2.htm
or Microsoft docs at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/pre...54586(v=vs.85)

.setRequestHeader should be executed after .Open and before .Send

I've already seen these pages but this hasn't answer my question regarding thinbasic's module: it may have behave as an object where one can set properties first then call method.

.setRequestHeader should be executed after .Open and before .Send

Ok, that is clear. Thanks ErosOlmi.
