IWinHttpRequest::Open method

Cikk
01/07/2021

The Open method opens an HTTP connection to an HTTP resource.

Syntax

HRESULT Open(
  [in]           BSTR    Method,
  [in]           BSTR    Url,
  [in, optional] VARIANT Async
);

Parameters

Method [in]

Specifies the HTTP verb used for the Open method, such as "GET" or "PUT". Always use uppercase as some servers ignore lowercase HTTP verbs.

Url [in]

Specifies the name of the resource. This must be an absolute URL.

Async [in, optional]

Indicates whether to open in asynchronous mode.

Value	Meaning
VARIANT_FALSE	Opens the HTTP connection in synchronous mode. A call to Send does not return until WinHTTP has completely received the response.
VARIANT_TRUE	Opens the HTTP connection in asynchronous mode.

Return value

The return value is S_OK on success or an error value otherwise.

Remarks

This method opens a connection to the resource identified in Url using the HTTP verb given in Method.

Note

For Windows XP and Windows 2000, see the Run-Time Requirements section of the WinHTTP Start Page.

Examples

The following example shows how to open an HTTP connection, send an HTTP request, and read the response text.

    }
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr))

        // Get Response text.
        hr = pIWinHttpRequest->get_ResponseText(&bstrResponse);
    }
    if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
    {
        // Print the response to a console.
        wprintf(L"%.256s",bstrResponse);
    }

    // Release memory.
    if (pIWinHttpRequest)
        pIWinHttpRequest->Release();
    if (bstrResponse)
        SysFreeString(bstrResponse);

    CoUninitialize();
    return 0;
}

The following scripting example shows how to open an HTTP connection, send an HTTP request, and read the response text.

// Instantiate a WinHttpRequest object.
var WinHttpReq = new ActiveXObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1");

// Initialize an HTTP request.  
WinHttpReq.Open("GET", "https://www.microsoft.com", false);

// Send the HTTP request.
WinHttpReq.Send(); 

// Display the response text.
WScript.Echo( WinHttpReq.ResponseText);
