(Perl) Get Response Header for Method that does not Return HttpResponse Object

Demonstrates how to get the response header and individual response header fields for a method that does not return an HTTP response object. (If a method returns an HHTTP response object, then the response header information should be obtained from the response object.)

# This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$http = chilkat::CkHttp->new();

$strHtml = $http->quickGetStr("https://www.duckduckgo.com/");
if ($http->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print $http->lastResponseHeader() . "\r\n";

# Here's a sample HTTP response header:

# Server: nginx
# Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 13:13:02 GMT
# Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
# Transfer-Encoding: chunked
# Connection: keep-alive
# Vary: Accept-Encoding
# ETag: W/"5f7371f4-1683"
# Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000
# X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
# Content-Security-Policy: default-src https: blob: data: 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval'; frame-ancestors 'self'
# X-XSS-Protection: 1;mode=block
# X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
# Referrer-Policy: origin
# Expect-CT: max-age=0
# Expires: Wed, 30 Sep 2020 13:13:01 GMT
# Cache-Control: no-cache
# Content-Encoding: gzip

# We can load it into a Chilkat MIME object to get header field values:
$mime = chilkat::CkMime->new();

$success = $mime->LoadMime($http->lastResponseHeader());
if ($success == 0) {
    print $mime->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

# Get MIME header field values using Chilkat MIME...
print "----" . "\r\n";
print "ETag: " . $mime->getHeaderField("ETag") . "\r\n";
