Remarks

Working with the COM object

In order to insert wodHttpDLX COM object in your project, follow these steps:

1. Install the component on your system by starting its setup program.

2. In the Visual Basic IDE, create new project or open existing one.

3. Click on 'Project', then on 'References' menu

4. Find and select 'WeOnlyDo! COM Http DELUXE Client COM Object', and click on 'Ok' to leave the dialog box.

5. Open code editor, and at the top, in (General) section add this code: Dim WithEvents Http1 As wodHttpDLXCom 6. In Form_Load function initialize the component

     
    Private Sub Form_Load()
     Set Http1 = New wodHttpDLXCom
    End Sub
     

7. If you have licensed version of wodHttpDLX, then after you initialize the component, set it's LicenseKey property:

     
    Private Sub Form_Load()
     Set Http1 = New wodHttpDLXCom
     Http1.LicenseKey = "xxxx....xxxx"
    End Sub
     

8. To use notifications (optional) instead of events, please refer here.

9. To free up the resources when your program ends, destroy the component from Form_Unload

     
    Private Sub Form_Unload(Cancel As Integer)
     Set Http1 = Nothing
    End Sub
     

10. Do not forget to distribute wodHttp.DLL when using COM object!
