(Go) 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.

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()
    var success bool

    resp := http.PText("GET","https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/inventory.xml","","","",false,false)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() == false {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())
        http.DisposeHttp()
        return
    }

    xml := chilkat.NewXml()

    // If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the XML from the HttpResponse to the Xml, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
    // This could save memory for extremely large XML responses.
    resp.SetUncommonOptions("TakeResponseBody")

    resp.GetBodyXml(xml)

    fmt.Println(*xml.GetXml())

    // Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
    fmt.Println("----")
    fmt.Println(resp.BodyStr())

    resp.DisposeHttpResponse()

    http.DisposeHttp()
    xml.DisposeXml()
