need help for QHttp

[patcito]

I tried wysota's example I found here http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/showpo...47&postcount=6

QHttp http;
QFile file("writetothisfile.txt");
file.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly);
http.get("http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

QHttp http;
QFile file("writetothisfile.txt");
file.open(QIODevice::WriteOnly);
http.get("http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

but this only creates an empty writetothisfile.txt although http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt is not empty.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

thanx in advance

do you call file->close() right after the last line? Try call it using requestFinish(), so the app. will have the time to fill it...

I have a question with the same topic. I have to search several pages. on the first page i have to find all the links and go to that pages to search for specific links. (the task is to list all the links on several blogs that are listed on the first page).
I do that using QHttp. I download the first page and put all link/blogs on that page in a database. Then I try to do download the rest. But when the app. download first couple links it start's making empty files (that eventually gets some data). But then it stops with error: Found and error: Request Aborted.

What happened?

Edit: The problem was in url.Path(), since it looks like QHttp can't handle URL like: "http://ww.example.com/?w=something". URL like "http://www.example.com/something" gives an empty file, but URL like "http://www.example.com/something/" works fine. URL like "http://www.example.com/index.php?com=something&id=same" gives only index.php without the content... Any solutions?

The example doesn't work. You have to change:

http.get("http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

http.get("http://www.ietf.org/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

into

http.setHost("www.ietf.org");
http.get("/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

http.setHost("www.ietf.org");
http.get("/iesg/1rfc_index.txt", &file);

And remember to have an event loop active.

Can we see the code which dispatches the requests?

it's a bit messy and in slovene lang. but i hope you will be able to read it. The whole source is in the att.
I'm still learning C++ as well as Qt and this is my first experiment with Qhttp so if you have any better solutions please let me know...

Edit: See my previous post... tnx

what do you mean? could you give me an example please?

patcito:

From QHttp docs:
The class works asynchronously, so there are no blocking functions. If an operation cannot be executed immediately, the function will still return straight away and the operation will be scheduled for later execution. The results of scheduled operations are reported via signals. This approach depends on the event loop being in operation.

QHttp::get() is one of QHttp's asynchronous functions. The function does not block and returns immediately. You'll get notified by signals when the request is started/finished/done..

You don't have to care about this in a GUI application's main thread, as you already have an event loop running. But if you're using QHttp in another threads, you'll need to enter to an event loop in those threads.

i have build a Gui_Wget whitout ui file...

And i put to static libs .... to work on all file only include gui_wget.h and get file

&& look QProgressBar *progressDialog; + slot to next .... automatic...

Have a look.....

http://ciz.ch/svnciz/forms_shop/lib_...4/gui_wget.cpp
http://ciz.ch/svnciz/forms_shop/lib_...qt4/gui_wget.h

Make a list from file Qlist<qstringlist> and loop all

void  DB_Setup::Wget_File(int pos , QString u , QString f , QString user , QString pass )
{
    /*file_put_contents_append("res.dat",QString( "Prendileo %1" ).arg( QString::number(pos)));*/
    get_file = new Gui_Wget(this);
    get_file->show();
    get_file->OrderGetUrl(u,f,user,pass);  /* URL , Localfile , USER, PASS */
    connect( get_file, SIGNAL( ready_action() ), this, SLOT( incomming_next() ) ); 
}

void  DB_Setup::Wget_File(int pos , QString u , QString f , QString user , QString pass )
{
    /*file_put_contents_append("res.dat",QString( "Prendileo %1" ).arg( QString::number(pos)));*/
    get_file = new Gui_Wget(this);
    get_file->show();
    get_file->OrderGetUrl(u,f,user,pass);  /* URL , Localfile , USER, PASS */
    connect( get_file, SIGNAL( ready_action() ), this, SLOT( incomming_next() ) ); 
}

My loop of file is a xml config file....

and import remote db and file .... evry file open a popup show the progress from 0 to 100
by 100 close and open the next .... you cann make a list by xml or sql...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<wget xmlns:cms="http://www.pulitzer.ch/2005/PuliCMS/1.0">
 <requestfile sqlurl="http://ppk.ciz.ch/qt_c++/db/customers.sql" localname="1sampledata.sql" />
 <requestfile sqlurl="http://ppk.ciz.ch/qt_c++/db/customers.sql" localname="2sampledata.sql" />
</wget>
