WinHttpRequest object

This topic provides information about using the WinHTTP WinHttpRequest COM object with scripting languages. For more information, including the C++ API (WinHTTP) please see About WinHTTP. See Choosing a WinHTTP Interface for a comparison of these interfaces.

Example

// Instantiate a WinHttpRequest object.
var WinHttpReq = new ActiveXObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1");
 IWinHttpRequest *  pIWinHttpRequest = NULL;
 \\..
    hr = CLSIDFromProgID(L"WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1", &clsid);

    if (SUCCEEDED(hr))
    {
        hr = CoCreateInstance(clsid, NULL,
                              CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
                              IID_IWinHttpRequest,
                              (void **)&pIWinHttpRequest);
    }

SetProxy Sets proxy server information.
SetRequestHeader Adds, changes, or deletes an HTTP request header.
SetTimeouts Specifies, in milliseconds, the individual time-out components of a send/receive operation.
WaitForResponse Specifies the wait time, in seconds, for an asynchronous Send method to complete, with optional time-out value.

Properties

The WinHttpRequest object has these properties.

Property Access type Description
Option
Read/write

ResponseBody
Read-only
Retrieves the response entity body as an array of unsigned bytes.
ResponseStream

Remarks

The WinHttpRequest object uses the IErrorInfo interface to provide error data. A description and numerical error value can be obtained with the Err object in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript), and the Error object in Microsoft JScript. The lower 16 bits of an error number correspond to the values found in Error Messages.
