Is there any way to force a DataSnap REST TStream method to respond as content stream instead of a JSON Array

RyszardK · May 30, 2022

Hello.

I have a DataSpan application written in Delphi 10. Right now I want to migrate to Delphi 11.1.

Certain REST methods returning files as TStream.

New version in Delphi 11 the stream response format in JSON Array.

I can get a content stream with a client-side parameter like this: http://host:port/datasnap/rest/[Class]/[Method]/?json=false

But is there a way for the DataSnap application in Delphi 11 to return the result as stream by default.

The application is used by many external clients and I see a problem with modifying all their REST queries to the server.

Thank you in advance for your help.
