(PHP 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.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Http')
$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");

// resp is a Chilkat.HttpResponse
$resp = $http->PText('GET','https://www.chilkatsoft.com/exampledata/inventory.xml','','','',0,0);
if ($http->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
    exit;
}

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.Xml')
$xml = new COM("Chilkat.Xml");

// 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->UncommonOptions = 'TakeResponseBody';

$resp->GetBodyXml($xml);

print $xml->getXml() . "\n";

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
print '----' . "\n";
print $resp->BodyStr . "\n";
