HTTP GET Example

##Sychronous This example performs a synchronous HTTP GET request on the calling thread.

Dim curl As New cURLClient
If curl.Get("http://www.example.com/") Then
  Dim page As String = curl.GetDownloadedData()
Else
  MsgBox(libcURL.FormatError(curl.LastError))
End If

##Asychronous This example performs an asynchronous HTTP GET in a console application, and prints the output directly to the screen. The Get method accepts an optional Writeable object to which downloaded data should be written. Because this is a console application an event loop must be supplied for the asynchronous transfers to run on:

  Dim curl As New cURLClient
  curl.Get("http://www.example.com/", stdout) ' stdout implements Writeable
  Do
    App.DoEvents() ' async transfers require an event loop!
  Loop Until curl.IsTransferComplete

  If curl.GetStatusCode <> 200 Then 
    Print("HTTP Status: " + Str(curl.GetStatusCode))
  End If
