Using WinInet to identify total file size before d

问题:

I got the source below from a third-party site explaining how to download a file from the internet using WinInet. I'm not too familiar with API, and I took at look at the WinInet unit but did not see any API calls like what I need.

What I'm doing is adding the ability to report back progress of downloading a file. This procedure I've already wrapped inside of a TThread and everything works fine. However, just one missing piece: Finding the total size of the source file before downloading.

See below where I have a comment //HOW TO GET TOTAL SIZE? This is where I need to find out what is the total size of the file BEFORE I begin downloading it. How do I go about doing this? Because this code seems to not know the size of the file until it's done being downloaded - and that makes this addition irrelevant.

procedure TInetThread.Execute;
const
  BufferSize = 1024;
var
  hSession, hURL: HInternet;
  Buffer: array[1..BufferSize] of Byte;
  BufferLen: DWORD;
  f: File;
  S: Bool;
  D: Integer;
  T: Integer;
  procedure DoWork(const Amt: Integer);
  begin
    if assigned(FOnWork) then
      FOnWork(Self, FSource, FDest, Amt, T);
  end;
begin
  S:= False;
  try
    try
      if not DirectoryExists(ExtractFilePath(FDest)) then begin
        ForceDirectories(ExtractFilePath(FDest));
      end;
      hSession:= InternetOpen(PChar(FAppName), INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG, nil, nil, 0);
      try
        hURL:= InternetOpenURL(hSession, PChar(FSource), nil, 0, 0, 0);
        try
          AssignFile(f, FDest);
          Rewrite(f, 1);
          T:= 0; //HOW TO GET TOTAL SIZE?
          D:= 0;
          DoWork(D);
          repeat
            InternetReadFile(hURL, @Buffer, SizeOf(Buffer), BufferLen);
            BlockWrite(f, Buffer, BufferLen);
            D:= D + BufferLen;
            DoWork(D);
          until BufferLen = 0;
          CloseFile(f);
          S:= True;
        finally
          InternetCloseHandle(hURL);
        end
      finally
        InternetCloseHandle(hSession);
      end;
    except
      on e: exception do begin
        S:= False;
      end;
    end;
  finally
    if assigned(FOnComplete) then
      FOnComplete(Self, FSource, FDest, S);
  end;
end;

You can use the HEAD method and check the Content-Length to retrieve the file size of a remote file

Check these two Methods

WinInet

If you want execute a HEAD method you must use the HttpOpenRequest, HttpSendRequest and HttpQueryInfo WinInet functions .

uses
 SysUtils,
 Windows,
 WinInet;

function GetWinInetError(ErrorCode:Cardinal): string;
const
   winetdll = 'wininet.dll';
var
  Len: Integer;
  Buffer: PChar;
begin
  Len := FormatMessage(
  FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_HMODULE or FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM or
  FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER or FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS or  FORMAT_MESSAGE_ARGUMENT_ARRAY,
  Pointer(GetModuleHandle(winetdll)), ErrorCode, 0, @Buffer, SizeOf(Buffer), nil);
  try
    while (Len > 0) and {$IFDEF UNICODE}(CharInSet(Buffer[Len - 1], [#0..#32, '.'])) {$ELSE}(Buffer[Len - 1] in [#0..#32, '.']) {$ENDIF} do Dec(Len);
    SetString(Result, Buffer, Len);
  finally
    LocalFree(HLOCAL(Buffer));
  end;
end;

  InternetCrackUrl(PChar(lpszUrl), Length(lpszUrl), ICU_DECODE or ICU_ESCAPE, lpUrlComponents);

Also check this code using indy.

function GetRemoteFilesize(const Url :string) : Integer;
var
  Http: TIdHTTP;
begin
  Http := TIdHTTP.Create(nil);
  try
    Http.Head(Url);
    result:= Http.Response.ContentLength;
  finally
    Http.Free;
  end;
end;

Answering the question of how to get a download size with WinInet. This is out of one of my file downloaders that is based on WinInet.

This is the method I use to get the download size:

function TWebDownloader.GetContentLength(URLHandle: HINTERNET): Int64;
// returns the expected download size.  Returns -1 if one not provided
   var
     SBuffer: Array[1..20] of char;
     SBufferSize: Integer;
     srv: integer;
   begin
     srv := 0;
    SBufferSize := 20;
    if HttpQueryInfo(URLHandle, HTTP_QUERY_CONTENT_LENGTH, @SBuffer, SBufferSize, srv) then
       Result := StrToFloat(String(SBuffer))
    else
       Result := -1;
   end;

Use of this method requires an open request handle, and does NOT require reading any of the data:

 URLHandle := HttpOpenRequest(ConnectHandle, 'GET', Pchar(sitepath), nil,
                  nil, nil, INTERNET_FLAG_NO_CACHE_WRITE, 0);
 ...
 DownloadSize := GetContentLength(URLHandle);

回答3:

after fixing the types it looks better like this:

function GetContentLength(URLHandle:HINTERNET):Int64;
// returns the expected download size.  Returns -1 if one not provided
var
 SBufferSize, srv:Cardinal;
begin
 srv:=0;
 SBufferSize:=20;
 if Not HttpQueryInfo(URLHandle, HTTP_QUERY_CONTENT_LENGTH or HTTP_QUERY_FLAG_NUMBER, {@SBuffer} @Result, SBufferSize, srv) then Result:=-1;
end;

to call it:

{get the file handle}
hURL:=InternetOpenURL(hSession, PChar(URL), nil, 0, 0, 0);
if hURL=Nil then
begin
 InternetCloseHandle(hSession);
 ShowMessage('The link is incorrect!');
 exit;
end;
{get the file size}
filesize:=GetContentLength(hURL);
