Chilkat v11.5.0 Release Notes
✨ New Features HttpCurl A new Chilkat class has been added: HttpCurl The Chilkat.HttpCurl class executes curl commands and can automatically resolve dependent values needed by a request. Variables such as {{access_token}}, {{site_id}}, or {{drive_id}} may appear in URLs, headers, query parameters, or request bodies. If a variable is not yet known, HttpCurl builds […]
Chilkat v11.4.0 Release Notes
✨ New Features Js A new Chilkat class has been added: Js is a minimal, standards-compliant JavaScript engine designed to embed JavaScript inside applications with very small footprint and fast startup. It executes JavaScript code inside an application without requiring a browser or large runtime. See About the Chilkat.Js JavaScript Engine Ai Provider — […]
Wrapping a Chilkat Synchronous Method in C# async/await
Chilkat provides its own Async functions, separate from C#’s async/await. For each synchronous Chilkat function that may take time due to network communication or other factors, an Async version is also available, returning a Chilkat Task object (distinct from C#’s Task object). Chilkat’s Async functionality exists in all of the programming languages: C++, PHP, Ruby, […]
C++ CkHttp AbortCheck Callback
Chilkat classes that involve network communications can use callbacks. This blog post describes the CkHttp AbortCheck callback. An application can request periodic AbortCheck callbacks according to the HeartbeatMs property setting. (If HeartbeatMs = 0, then no AbortCheck callbacks will occur.) For example:
C# TreeView to JSON and Back
Here’s a C# class for persisting a TreeView to JSON, and for restoring a TreeView from JSON.
C# — Load a TreeView from JSON, Save a TreeView to JSON
Here are a few snippets of code I needed for internal tools… TreeView –> JSON JSON –> TreeView
C++ Zip Example to Append In-Memory Binary and String Data
C Language Callbacks
This example demonstrates the general pattern for implementing some standard event callbacks functions for the Chilkat “C” API. All Chilkat “classes” what have events will use the standard Chilkat events shown in the example below (AbortCheck, PercentDone, and ProgressInfo). This example demonstrates callbacks for an SFTP download, but the same technique applies to any other […]
C# SFTP Upload from Byte[]
This example demonstrates how to open a remote file on an SSH/SFTP server, write to the file, and then close it. This is analogous to opening a local file, writing to it, and closing it. The SFTP protocol (i.e. Secure File Transfer over SSH), follows the same concepts as typical file I/O programming — i.e. […]
C# TaskCompleted Event — Updating the UI from a Background Thread
This sample C# snippet demonstrates how to use the TaskCompleted event to be notified when an asynchronous method completes. Given that the event callback is in the background thread, any UI updates must occur on the main thread. This example demonstrates how to do it:
