Delphi REST library and parallel requests

[Jacek Laskowski 57]

Does the REST library built into delphi allow multiple requests to run in parallel on a single TRESTClient?

The way you use this library is that you create an instance of TRESTClient:

 

      fClient := TRESTClient.Create(aBaseURL);

 

And then at runtime when there is a need to execute a request you create TRESTRequest, TRESTResponse and call Execute() on TRESTRequest, in short:

 

 fRequest := TRESTRequest.Create(nil);
 fRequest.Client := fClient;
 fRequest.Resource := aEndpointData.Endpoint;
 fRequest.Method := aEndpointData.HTTPMethod;
 fResponse := TRESTResponse.Create(nil);
 fRequest.Response := fResponse;
 fRequest.Execute();

That is, each request has a new TRESTRequest and a new TRESTResponse, but the same TRESTClient.

 

So is it allowed to execute simultaneously (e.g. in a thread) several requests on the same TRESTClient?

No. You need separate client for each request if you want to run them in parallel.

It's a bit sad. Too bad.
Thanks.
