The newer model was introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.52, and is identified by methods having names ending in “Async” which return a task object. The following example demonstrates the older, deprecated asynchronous HTTP functionality that allows for any HTTP method to be run asynchronously […]

Question: Using the HTTP component I’m connecting and downloading an RSS feed via a Proxy server (fantastic!!). Trouble is – the proxy is caching yesterday’s feed and I need to force the proxy to refresh it’s contents (that’s the proxy on my network – not the Chilkat local cache).

(A tip from a Chilkat customer.) The only way to delete emails on Gmail is in three steps: 1. Copy the email(s) to the folder called [Gmail]/Trash 2.

The technique for aborting any time-consuming Chilkat C++ method call follows this recipe: Declare your own class that derives from the appropriate Chilkat progress monitoring class. For CkMailMan it is CkMailManProgress (as shown below). For other Chilkat classes it is CkHttpProgress, CkFtpProgress, CkImapProgress, CkZipProgress, etc. Create an implementation for the AbortCheck method. This will override the default implementation from the […]
