Hey Jim! I've managed to get my web "GET" request to successfully send via curl MANUALLY, but when attempting to send it via a jBASE pgm using EXECUTE 'CMD /C C:\curl\curl.exe "http://production.shippingapis.com...<blah>" ' it just fails with the error "< was unexpected at this time." This basically means that the way the jBASE "EXECUTE 'CMD /C....'" is running the dos command is messing up the quotes around my curl command and causing problems with my various <BLAH> and </BLAH> elements. I've run into this numerous times in jBASE. The old D3 EXECUTE '!<dos cmd>' worked for me every time, but the EXECUTE 'CMD /C' in jBASE is very unpredictable. Unless there's a better way to run a DOS command from within a jBASE pgm then I'm moving on to the POWERSHELL method you suggested...
SO, I've gotten my 'invoke-restmethod -Uri "http://<blah>"' command to return the proper XML info from the USPS site, but now I'm wondering how I would call this powershell command from within a jBASE program? Using an EXECUTE 'CMD /C invoke-restmethod...' method as I did with my CURL attempt would obviously just try and execute the command at DOS and not within PowerShell. I assume there's some other nifty way of calling a powershell command from within a jBC program? Sorry! Been working in Pick for over 35 years, but I'm a 2-month old newby when it comes to jBASE! :) -Greg On Thursday, January 25, 2018 at 5:32:16 PM UTC-6, Jim Idle wrote: > > Those D3 socket routines are very clunky and I bet nobody has tested them > for security either.
