HTTPSocket and PATCH Method

General
1

I’m working with an API that uses PATCH commands for updating records. However, the Xojo HTTPSocket and HTTPSecureSocket classes don’t support PATCH methods.

My plan is to implement a PATCH method on a subclass of HTTPSocket / HTTPSecureSocket. But before I go down that road, I thought I’d ask if anyone else has run into the need for PATCH support, and if so, how you handled it.

Thanks in advance.

HTTPSocket and HTTPSecureSocket have a SendRequest method, which can be used to send custom requests, besides Get and Post. http://documentation.xojo.com/index.php/HTTPSocket.SendRequest

@Ashot Khachatryan: Thank you so much! I’m not sure how I missed that, but I suspected there was an easier way to do a PATCH.

Keep in mind that these sockets send http/1.0 requests and that the ability to use verbs other than GET and POST came later.
