I need to write an application to receive & process stream data from a http server. The stream data is queried by HTTP GET.
I found the HTTP header contains a field: "Transfer-Encoding: chunked".
Can Indy IdHTTP handle this kind of streamming data?
I have try to download the stream data using a TCP connection, but it is not HTTP level, I need to do lot of work to decode HTTP
headers, and cookies etc...
Here is the sample stream data I got from the HTTP server.
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Powered-By: Servlet 2.4; Tomcat-5.0.28/JBoss-3.2.7 (build: CVSTag=JBoss_3_2_7 date=200501280217)
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2005 03:49:33 GMT
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1

OK
