IHttpContext::GetRequest Method

Returns the HTTP request container for the current context.

Syntax

virtual IHttpRequest* GetRequest(  
   VOID  
) = 0;

Parameters

This method takes no parameters.

Return Value

A pointer to an IHttpRequest interface.

Remarks

The GetRequest method returns a pointer to an IHttpRequest interface that can be used to call any of the IHttpRequest methods.

Note

The HTTP context object owns the lifetime of this object. Therefore, you do not free this pointer when writing HTTP modules.

Example

The following code example illustrates how to use the IHttpContext::GetRequest and GetResponse methods to return pointers to IHttpRequest and IHttpResponse interfaces. This example also demonstrates how to use the IHttpRequest::GetHttpMethod method to retrieve the HTTP method for the current request, and it displays the method to a Web client by using the IHttpResponse::WriteEntityChunks method.

[!code-cppIHttpContextGetRequest#1]

Your module must export the RegisterModule function. You can export this function by creating a module definition (.def) file for your project, or you can compile the module by using the /EXPORT:RegisterModule switch. For more information, see Walkthrough: Creating a Request-Level HTTP Module By Using Native Code.

You can optionally compile the code by using the __stdcall (/Gz) calling convention instead of explicitly declaring the calling convention for each function.
