RE: [U2] CallHTTP vs cURL...

David, buried in my point was that you may be able to get other phantoms to be more effective, thus reducing your requirement for phantoms for other tasks. So with luck, when you do need a new one for CallHTTP your total phantom usage won't be any more than it is now. Like anything, especially

I have a phantom that does a CallHTTP to 'call back' to our RedBack server to run a Java Method that returns some data. Essentially, it's doing a 'data read' - but with IBM's new 'drive for revenue', this command now makes the Phantom into an iPhantom -- which defeats the reason we made it a

I have used EXECUTE !curl ... in a number of apps and it definitely does not take an iphantom licence. However i use it not to get round licencing (as this is usually from a uniobjects call anyway) but because for some reason curl is many times more efficient than callhttp. I presume the udt
