Re: Connection: Close

[Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Karl,

Take a look at EXAMPLE20 -- what it does is inject the SoapAction: 
header into the HTTP protocol.

In your case, you don't want to inject SoapAction:  Instead, you want to 
inject a connection: header (or maybe both SoapAction: and Connection:). 
  Anyway, use the same logic that EXAMPLE20 does, except do this:

         Header = 'Connection: close' + x'0d25';

Or if you need to do both Connection: and SoapAction: do this:

          Header = 'SOAPAction: '
                 + 'http://www.webserviceX.NET/ConversionRate'
                 + x'0d25'
                 + 'Connection: close'
                 + x'0d25';

I would recommend that you take advantage of this type of code rather 
than modifying HTTPAPI itself.  That way, you won't have to re-do the 
modification each time you update HTTPAPI.
