winsock vb6 dataarrvival oversize content-length help

I was wondering what is the best way to grab over size content-length http dataarrival? because if over size data it will come in more the once

the header contain with content-length, lets say the Content-Length: 1968


how do u get only once.


thank you.

As far as I know you can't force Winsock to receive all data at once and have the DataArrival event only fire once. When receiving large data, the DataArrival event will fire multiple times and you'll have to join the incoming data yourself. Or what do you exactly mean with "over size content-length" ?

vb Code:

Private strAllData As String
 
Private Sub Winsock1_DataArrival(ByVal bytesTotal As Long)
    Dim strData As String
    
    Winsock1.GetData strData, vbString
    
    strAllData = strAllData & strData
    
End Sub
