aprHTTP GetOption

:GetOption()

Class

aprHTTP()

Syntax

:GetOption( nOption ) -> lOptionSet

Parameters

nOption

Constant representing the desired Option. May be added together.

Return

If the Option is set, the return value is .T., otherwise .F. is returned.

Description

The :GetOption() Method determines whether or not a particular option is set.

HTTP_OPTION_NOCACHE

This instructs the server to not return a cached copy of the resource. When connected to an HTTP 1.0 or earlier server, this directive may be ignored.

HTTP_OPTION_KEEPALIVE

This instructs the server to maintain a persistent connection between requests. This can improve performance because it eliminates the need to establish a separate connection for each resource that is requested.

If the server does not support the keep-alive option, the client will automatically reconnect when each resource is requested. Although it will not provide any performance benefits, this allows the option to be used with all servers.
