CInternetSession::OpenURL

[Ola Carlsson]

How can I use OpenURL and set max retries, timeout etc… If I use OpenURL and my connection doesn’t exist, the program crash. Thanks Ola Carlsson

Hello, I use this bit of code to pull the text(source) from a provided url.. Maybe you can see something different with this code vrs yours.

CString CUserProfileDlg::GetFile(const char *url, const char *filename)
{
char httpbuff[HTTPBUFLEN];
TCHAR szCause[2048];
CString Cause;
Cause.Format("YES");

 TRY
 {
      CInternetSession mysession;
      CStdioFile \*remotefile = mysession.OpenURL(url,1,INTERNET\_FLAG\_TRANSFER\_BINARY|INTERNET\_FLAG\_RELOAD);

      CFile myfile(filename, CFile::modeCreate|CFile::modeWrite|CFile::typeBinary);
      int numbytes;

      while (numbytes = remotefile->Read(httpbuff, HTTPBUFLEN))
	  {
           myfile.Write(httpbuff, numbytes);
	  }
 }

 CATCH\_ALL(error)
 {
      error->GetErrorMessage(szCause,2046,NULL);
      Cause.Format("%s",szCause);
 }
 END\_CATCH\_ALL;

 return (Cause);

}
