Question:

Running ChilKat HTTP in a separate thread, what to do with quickGetStr?

Nov 11 '12 at 03:13

I'll be running a very simple function using the HTTP quickGetStr. I'll only call it once or twice, but what happens if it fails because of no internet access? Can I setup a timeout for that function?

Hello Owen,

Did you try to set the ConnectTimeout? http://www.chilkatsoft.com/refdoc/vcCkHttpDoc.html#prop017

Ah! It is always obvious when someone else points it out! Many thanks :)
