Is it possible to ignore cert errors on HTTP downloads?

[gaouservbf]

On cHttpDownload, by any chance its possible to ignore cert errors like we do on TLS sockets?

It's possible to add an Insecure property which controls LocalFeatures parameter to Connect method.

Send a PR if you feel like implementing it.

I already forked the project to add a proper Wiki but realized they dont come with the code. I will add that maybe.

For now I just meshed it into my code without a property. I will add a property and do a PR later.

@wqweto Also, based on the Basic test which works for me. I prepared this little snippet, Though the MsgBox never shows up?

Option Explicit
DefObj A-Z
Private Const MODULE_NAME = "Form1"

#Const ImplUseDebugLog = (USE_DEBUG_LOG <> 0)

Private WithEvents m_oSocket As cAsyncSocket
Private WithEvents m_oHttpDownload As cHttpDownload

Private m_dblStartTimerEx As Double
Private m_dblNextTimerEx As Double
Private WithEvents m_oClientSocket As cTlsSocket
Private WithEvents m_oRequest As cHttpRequest
Private m_oRootCa As cTlsSocket

Private Type UcsParsedUrl
    Protocol        As String
    Host            As String
    Port            As Long
    Path            As String
    QueryString     As String
    Anchor          As String
    User            As String
    Pass            As String
End Type

Private Sub Command1_Click()

    Set m_oHttpDownload = New cHttpDownload

m_oHttpDownload.DownloadFile "https" & "://dl.unicontsoft.com/upload/aaa.zip", Environ$("TMP") & "\aaa.zip"
End Sub

Private Sub m_oHttpDownload_DownloadComplete(ByVal LocalFileName As String)
MsgBox LocalFileName
End Sub

[wqweto]

There is no aaa.zip on the host. You can handle OperationError like this

Private Sub m_oHttpDownload_OperationError(ByVal Number As Long, ByVal Description As String, ByVal Source As String)
    MsgBox Description, vbCritical
End Sub

. . . which then says Server returned 404 Not Found

Otherwise m_oHttpDownload.DownloadFile "https://dl.unicontsoft.com/upload/mdJson.zip", Environ$("TMP") & "\aaa.zip" for instance works.

Will try it right now!

@wqweto Weird, I can download it from a button click but not from a sub/function? Maybe because of the sync socket stuff going on?
