getUrl

[incapacitant]

I use the following code to send a request to a server :

int misc::getUrl( const QString & host,  const QString & url, QHttp * pHttp, QIODevice * pDevice, const QString & referer )
{
    qDebug( "getUrl host=%s url=%s", qPrintable( host ), qPrintable( url ) );
    Proxy p = proxy();
    if ( p.Enabled )
        pHttp->setProxy( p.Host, p.Port,  p.Login, p.Password );
    pHttp->setHost( host );
    QHttpRequestHeader header( "GET", url, 1, 1 );
    header.setValue( "Host", host );
    if ( !referer.isEmpty() )
        header.setValue( "Referer", referer );
    header.setContentLength( 0 );
    return pHttp->request( header, 0, pDevice );
}

int misc::getUrl( const QString & host,  const QString & url, QHttp * pHttp, QIODevice * pDevice, const QString & referer )
{
    qDebug( "getUrl host=%s url=%s", qPrintable( host ), qPrintable( url ) );
    Proxy p = proxy();
    if ( p.Enabled )
        pHttp->setProxy( p.Host, p.Port,  p.Login, p.Password );
    pHttp->setHost( host );
    QHttpRequestHeader header( "GET", url, 1, 1 );
    header.setValue( "Host", host );
    if ( !referer.isEmpty() )
        header.setValue( "Referer", referer );
    header.setContentLength( 0 );
    return pHttp->request( header, 0, pDevice );
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

It works very well, trouble is I cannot get the status result of the request that I expect to get through pDevice. I tried pDevice->data(), pDevice.readLine but nothing comes back. The request does what it should do but it won't tell me what it did.

I assume this getUrl stuff is widespread (I got it from some friend), maybe you can tell me or hint at how I could get a status result !!

No need to say that I am NOT an intermediate user, hardly a novice...

You can use QHttp::lastResponse() to get hold of the last response object which contains the data you need.
