(Delphi ActiveX) Load XML Object from HTTP Response Body

Demonstrates how to load the HTTP response body directly into an XML object.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.89 or greater because it uses the GetBodyXml method. Prior to v9.5.0.89, and application would need to first copy the HTTP response body to a Chilkat StringBuilder object by calling GetBodySb, and then load the Xml object by calling Xml.LoadSb.

// This could save memory for extremely large XML responses.

Memo1.Lines.Add(xml.GetXml());

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
Memo1.Lines.Add('----');
