Re: HTTP PUT for RESTful Web services on roUrlTransfer?

Can you clarify please - are you saying that .getToString() honors prior .setRequest() but .postFromString() overrides it?

Yes. That is precisely what I'm saying.

I opened internal ticket on this just and was told that it works. Then i sat and tried setRequest() with both PUT and DELETE, with the following:
getToString()
getToFile()
postFromString()
postFromFile()

I used packet capture and in all 8 cases i saw that the correct http verb (PUT or DELETE) was sent down the wire.
Seems that you were incorrect - and the verb override works.

Please provide a minimal code sample that demonstrates the issue, the way you experience it?

I was wrong!

I set it all up again, but cannot reproduce what I claimed was happening. Therefore, I must be sent for flogging.

Thank you for looking into this. Sorry!

Re: HTTP PUT for RESTful Web services on roUrlTransfer?

On the plus side, after the experiments i think we can finally put this to rest.
To recap: one can do PUT and DELETE by using the roUrlTransfer.SetRequest() method.

This is an ancient thread and things have changed since it was started over 6 years ago. I'll close it now - please open a new one if issues found.
