Return value
HTTP status of the request (
e.g. 200 for success, see Section
Constants for a list of predefined status code constants; value 999 indicates that an I/O error occurred during the operation) or the request number (≥1000) if the asynchronous mode is active
Further information
1. The function returns after the request has been processed when synchronous mode is active (see
http_async). Otherwise, using asynchronous mode, the function returns immediately after having sent the request and the model is notified about the completion of the operation by an event of class
EVENT_HTTPEND. In this mode the result file
result must be a physical file (although drivers
"tmp:" and
"null:" can still be used).
2. When cookie management is enabled (see
http_cookies) an additional header
"Cookie:" is inserted into the request if the cookie store contains compatible cookies. This behaviour is disabled if this optional header is already specified via the parameter
xhdr.
