Nov 14 '14 at 11:51

Hello at all,

i need please help while downloading from a REST Webservice. I use the actually http-Chilkat library.

I call a Webservice. The request need informations about authenfication and file my request. when i do this in browser then the "save as" popup is shown and i can download the file.

How can i handle this with chilkat?

if i do this:

resp = http.SynchronousRequest("mywebservie.de/webservice1",80,false,req);

The resp has no information about the file.

Please help me. Thank you

The first argument to SynchronousRequest is a domain (or an IP address). Pass only the domain, such as "mywebservice.de". The Path part of the URL is passed in the HttpRequest object..
