I'm having trouble using HTLoadToChunk - hopefully I'm simply using it
incorrectly. For some reason when I call HTLoadToChunk to retrieve a
data file (for example a GIF) it wants to dump the data to a file
rather than to the chunk.
The following test program shows that the returned chunk exists but
chunk->data does not. Along the way, it prompts for a filename and
successfully saves the GIF to a file. I want the GIF to be kept in the
memory chunk. Am I doing something wrong?
#include "WWWLib.h"
#include "WWWInit.h"
#include "WWWApp.h"
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
HTProfile_newPreemptiveClient ("Test", "1.0");
{
HTRequest * req = HTRequest_new ();
HTChunk * chunk = HTLoadToChunk
("http://home.netscape.com/images/noscript_banner.gif", req);
if (chunk)
{
printf ("Chunk exists\n");
if (chunk->data)
printf ("Data exists\n");
}
}
return (0);
}
This problem occurs on both NT 4.0 and BSDi 1.1 compiles of libwww.
Any URL gives the same behavior.
