Ajax - XMLHttpRequest in Oolite

[Day]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to make an XMLHttpRequest in an OXP world script.

I got an error:

Code: Select all

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open('GET', 'http://www.mozilla.org/', false);
req.send(null);
if (req.status === 200) {
    log("smthg","answer received: "+ req.responseText);
} else {
    log("smthg","status of the reply: "+ req.status+" "+req.statusText);
}

Code: Select all

10:50:44.700 [script.javaScript.exception.notDefined]: ***** JavaScript exception (DayDiplomacy_090_Sqlite): ReferenceError: XMLHttpRequest is not defined

Would it be that XMLHttpRequest is not compiled into Oolite?
Is there a solution?

I have seen in the embedded mozilla code regression tests that XMLHttpRequest is used. But maybe these regression tests are dead code?

Every hint is welcome

From this link at Mozilla Developer Network:

The word JavaScript may bring to mind features such as event handlers (like onclick), DOM objects, window.open, and XMLHttpRequest. But in Mozilla, all of these features are actually provided by other components, not the SpiderMonkey engine itself.

Sorry, it will not work.

Thank you another_commander, I hadn't found this

I will find another way
