this don't works in my project......i don't know why....

 

[eurojam]

we also dont't know it - you should provide more information

 

[DonManfred]

this don't works in my project.....

Export and zip your project and upload it here.
I´m sure httputils will work in your project too.

But NOTE: httputils does NOT do a sync download.

A Download will always happen asynchronous.

i need a simply code for download 2 .txt files from a website (www.mysite.php/file.txt and www.mysite.php/file2.txt) and save it in the File.DirRootExternal, httutils don't works, i don't know why aftwer try i remove is from my project, is there a SIMPLY way to do this? maybe a little example....Donmanfred, i try

 

[DonManfred]

i need a simply code for download

See the tutorial you already got told to look at!! httputils2 IS the solution.

Do you expect us to write your app for you?

 

[DonManfred]

, is there a SIMPLY way to do this?

Yes! HTTPUTILS2

If it does not work for your then probably you are doing something wrong!

 

[eurojam]

don't know why aftwer try i remove is from my project

you should post your code....or proceed like DonManfred said, reading the tutorial....

For the lazy ones under us

Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    'Do not forget to load the layout file created with the visual designer. For example:
    'Activity.LoadLayout("Layout1")
    Dim job As HttpJob
    job.Tag = "file.txt"
  job.Initialize("file1", Me)
  job.Download("http://www.mysite.com/file.txt")
    Dim job As HttpJob
    job.Tag = "file2.txt"
  job.Initialize("file2", Me)
  job.Download("http://www.mysite.com/file2.txt")
End Sub
Sub JobDone(Job As HttpJob)
    ProgressDialogHide
  If Job.Success Then
        If Job.JobName = "file1" Then
            Dim out As OutputStream
            out = File.OpenOutput(File.DirRootExternal,Job.Tag,False )
            File.Copy2(Job.GetInputStream, out)
            out.Close
        End If
        If Job.JobName = "file2" Then
            Dim out As OutputStream
            out = File.OpenOutput(File.DirRootExternal,Job.Tag,False )
            File.Copy2(Job.GetInputStream, out)
            out.Close
        End If
  Else
      Log( Job.ErrorMessage)
  End If
    Job.Release
End Sub

PS: I guess i will regret doing this for a user who is longer member here in forum than me

You can always paste the link to your solution every time it will be asked

 

[DonManfred]

lol

Search the forum... There are at least 20 examples i wrote/posted

 

[eurojam]

I guess i will regret doing this for a user who is longer member here in forum than me

That the thing, the young ones like you have the energy to do that....

 

[DonManfred]

every time it will be asked

you are surely right... But for this i need to search for the solution by myself

For now it was easier to have a look at my test-projects-folder and to edit one of my examples to post it here

 

[DonManfred]

the young ones like you have the energy

REALLY? Tell this to my bones

 

[corvo]

thankyou so much guys, but i'm not lazy, i'm just very very rusty, i used this software 2 years ago for a project, i don't remember nothing another little help, how i can contact the webpage for pass the string? i will post my (maybe i must say our) project when it will be ready

 

[DonManfred]

For every new question you should start A NEW thread.

Please note that httputils2 is the right candidate for this too.

- See my signature for examples.
- Search the forum for example. There are plenty of it
- Go over the httputils2 tutorial and learn how to work with httputils2. You´ll soon reach the point to recognize that you are on the right way

 

[corvo]

Thankyou, i will try
