Syntax

• C++

• C

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int GetFeed(const char* lpszURL);

Unicode (Windows)
INT GetFeed(LPCWSTR lpszURL);

- (void)getFeed:(NSString*)URL;

#define MID_ATOM_GETFEED 7

IPWORKS_EXTERNAL int IPWORKS_CALL IPWorks_Atom_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);

Remarks

This method fetches the document. The document contents are delivered in the AtomData property, as well as through the Transfer event, and the HTTP response headers through the Header event.

The class will then attempt to parse the Atom feed, filling in the Channel and Entries properties as it goes. The Channel properties can also be accessed using the GetProperty and SetProperty methods if necessary.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
