THTTPReqResp.OnBeforePost breaking change

[A.M. Hoornweg 144]

Hello all,

 

I'm trying to port an older (Delphi XE) SOAP client application to Delphi Rio.  I'm stumbling upon a breaking change in THTTPReqResp, which is used by tHTTPRio.  The signature of the event THTTPReqResp.OnBeforePost has changed completely. 

 

Formerly the signature was:

 

  TBeforePostEvent = procedure (CONST HTTPReqResp: THTTPReqResp; Data: Pointer);

 

My routine does some manipulation of the http headers, for example it calls wininet.HTTPAddRequestHeaders(Data, ...) to allow gzip encoding and wininet.InternetSetOption(Data,....) to accept an invalid/self-signed SSL certificate.

 

 

The new signature of the event has become:

 

  TBeforePostEvent = procedure(const HTTPReqResp: THTTPReqResp; Client: THTTPClient) of object;

 

and now I'm stumped. How can I achieve the same as before? I want to accept gzip encoded data and I want to accept self signed SSL certificates.

 

Kind regards,

Arthur

The upcoming 10.3.2 Update will address all above issues. They are really reported in JIRA. Stay tuned ...

Hello,

I have the similar problem like A.M.H. has, just from 10.2 to 10.3. I update last week to 10.3.2 and the problem is still there... Any idea how to solve it?

 

Thx

<bump> any news here?  I still haven't got a clue how to achieve this in Delphi Rio.

@A.M. Hoornweg, did you checked THttpClient API ?

• accept gzip encoded data: set THttpClient.AutomaticDecompression to [THTTPCompressionMethod.GZip]
• accept an invalid/self-signed SSL certificate: set THttpClient.OnValidateServerCertificate to event handler which optionally can analyze Certificate and set Accepted to True / False

Thank you, I'll try this!
