This new library is available on PureArea.net.

This set of commands is written in 100% PureBasic code, which means it will work under all OS versions of Purebasic that support version 3.90 or superior. For now only the windows version is released.

Linux version is only pending on 3.90 release.

OsX and Amiga will also support this library if they reach 3.90.

Consider this library Beta and unfinished, there is still much work to do

Commands:

GetUrlLastMod(*Struct.filedata)

Retrieves the last modified date of the especified file.

This command is usefull to check if there are any updates on a file

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GetUrlFile(*Struct.filedata)

Downloads the especified file. This does not work with php / jsp / perl on-the-fly generated pages, because usually the page file size is not returned

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GetUrlProgress()

Thank you very much! Now i dont have to mess with thos OS-specific API codes! Waiting for the geturlsize function or so i can download a file with unknown file-size.

Looks good Num3! Will it download-to-buffer if no filename supplied?

Lots of people would use this, probably including me:)

@ricardo: Its already available on PureArea.net, so this shouldn't be a problem...

Yes you can downladoad several files at once (every time you call the function a thread is created), the only side effect is that the progress call back will return wacky values (because of the several threads).

I intent to solve this later on too

Thank you Num3 so much for this new library.

It's cool.

hi num3

i've realised a sort of frontend for your lib
this works a treat...
but as you said there's a lot of things to do

if you're agree, it would be good idea to add this features :

DownloadedBytes.l = GetUrlDownloadedSize()

Result.l = GetUrlCancelDownload()

you are already working on those 2 commands

so good news

Num3, would you create an updated archive of the GetURL lib ?

According to the thread about the GetURL sourcecode I noticed, that you released the sourcecode in an updated version.

Would be really nice, to have an complete up-to-date userlib archive on PureArea.net again !

see here: viewtopic.php?t=11095

i found severel bugs. The crypted of UserName+Pass is wrong. The error-code-check is wrong (it could happen, that a 404-file not found is detected, when in the tag-string is a "404"), not all errors are detected, use of threads -> unsecure.

And finaly:

With this code you can analyse the date from the server.

Code: Select all

Dim wkday$(6)
Dim weekday$(6)
Dim Month$(12)
wkday$(1)="MON" 
wkday$(2)="TUE" 
wkday$(3)="WED"
wkday$(4)="THU" 
wkday$(5)="FRI"
wkday$(6)="SAT"
wkday$(0)="SUN"
weekday$(1)="MONDAY"
weekday$(0)="TUESDAY"
weekday$(0)="WEDNESDAY"
weekday$(0)="THURSDAY"
weekday$(0)="FRIDAY"
weekday$(0)="SATURDAY"
weekday$(0)="SUNDAY"
