%url function question (Cmud3 Pro)
|
I can't get it to work. This is from the More Help document on %url:
| Code: |
u = %url("www.server.com")
@u.PostParams.name = zugg
@u.PostParams.key = value
s = @u.Post |
| Quote: |
| Performs an HTTP POST with the PostParams string of "name=zugg&key=value" and stores the result in the @s variable. |
The code from the help document does not work.
This is an error message I would get:
| Quote: |
| ERROR: Syntax error in Alias: foo : illegal token: .PostParams.name = zugg |
What is the right way to set the properties of a URL Object (i.e. Port and PostParam properties)? |

I've never really used this but something quirky seems to be happening here. I'm seeing the same behavior.

Try it this way:
| Code: |
#VAR u %url( "www.server.com")
;;
$db.name = "zugg"
$db.key = "software"
;;
u.PostParams = $db
;;
s = @u.Post
;;
#PRINT %json( @u.PostParams).name
|
The print outputs the following:
I don't know what result is expected, though:
| Quote: |
s => HTTP/1.1 408 Request Timeout
|
Here is the xml:
| Code: |
<alias name="test" id="1">
<value>#VAR u %url( "www.server.com")
;;
$db.name = "zugg"
$db.key = "software"
;;
u.PostParams = $db
;;
s = @u.Post
;;
#ECHO %json( @u.PostParams).name
</value>
</alias>
<var name="u" id="5"></var>
<var name="s" id="6">HTTP/1.1 408 Request Timeout</var>

| Code: |
u = %url("www.server.com")
@u.PostParams.name = zugg
@u.PostParams.key = value
s = @u.Post |
Do not put @ in front of the variable when making the assignment. The correct code is:
| Code: |
u = %url("www.server.com")
u.PostParams.name = zugg
u.PostParams.key = value
s = @u.Post |
Edited: WRONG See post below for corrected code. |

I tried running that code from a trigger. The error I get from that is:
| Quote: |
| No method/property name: PostParams.name. |
It comes up with a window named "Error in cMUDPro.exe" where I usually "Continue application" or I can also view the call stack. |

| Code: |
| #addkey @u.PostParams {name=zugg} |
Using that to set the PostParams may help.
That gets it further, but the .php page I passed into the %url() function still will not echo back the parameter. |

It looks like something in the %url function broke in one of the recent releases. I'll add this to the bug list for the next update.
Also, the example in the %url help file isn't correct, so I'll try to update that too.
(P.S. In the future you should make a new post in the correct forum since CMUD is no longer in Beta instead of bumping an old thread. I have moved this post to the correct forum) |

I have updated the help file for the %url topic to reflect the correct way to use PostParams and Params in v3.34. Since %url returns a COM variable, the way you work with PostParams and Params is a bit different than normal CMUD database variables. The correct code example is:
| Code: |
u = %url("www.server.com")
u.PostParams("name") = zugg
u.PostParams("key") = value
s = @u.Post |
