Title: Preview HTTP Posted Data using Delphi and TWebBrowser
Code submitted by Jason Penny.
OleVariantToMemoryStream
When you need to programmatically upload multiple files to an HTML form using the HTTP Post method - you can use the TWebBrowser Delphi control.
Before actually sending information you might need to preview the data to be posted. Use the OnBeforeNavigate2 event of the TWebBrowser control.
procedure TPostForm.WebBrowser1BeforeNavigate2(ASender: TObject; const pDisp: IDispatch; var URL, Flags, TargetFrameName, PostData, Headers: OleVariant; var Cancel: WordBool) ;
function OleVariantToMemoryStream(OV: OleVariant): TMemoryStream;
var
Data: PByteArray;
Size: integer;
begin
Result := TMemoryStream.Create;
try
Size := VarArrayHighBound (OV, 1) - VarArrayLowBound(OV, 1) + 1;
Data := VarArrayLock(OV) ;
try
Result.Position := 0;
Result.WriteBuffer(Data^, Size) ;
finally
VarArrayUnlock(OV) ;
end;
except
Result.Free;
Result := nil;
end;
end;
var
ms: TMemoryStream;
ss: TStringStream;
begin
ss := TStringStream.Create('') ;
try
if Length(PostData) 0 then
begin
ms := OleVariantToMemoryStream(PostData) ;
ms.Position := 0;
ss.CopyFrom(ms, ms.size) ;
ss.Position := 0;
ShowMessage('HEADER:' + Headers + #13#10#13#10 + ss.DataString) ;
end;
finally
ss.Free;
end;
end;
