I am trying to simulate the "new identity" button in Vidalia (the Tor GUI) from my program. I asked about that , based on Rob Kennedy's answer, I tried this in my application: IdTelnet1.Host:='127.0.0.1'; IdTelnet1.Port:=9051; IdTelnet1.Connect(-1); IdTelnet1.SendCmd('SIGNAL NEWNYM'); But it has not worked for me. Even after I send the command, I get the same proxy. I am using Indy 9. I don't know whether I don't know how to use TIdTelnet or don't know how to send that specific command. You cannot use the SendCmd() method with TIdTelnet. TIdTelnet uses an internal reading thread that

I'm using the TIdHTTP.Get procedure in a thread to download a file . My question is how I can stop (cancel) the download of the file? You could use the default procedure idhttp1.Disconnect... I would try to cancel it by throwing an silent exception using Abort method in the TIdHTTP.OnWork event. This event is fired for read/write operations, so it's fired also in your downloading progress. type TDownloadThread = class(TThread) private FIdHTTP: TIdHTTP; FCancel: boolean; procedure OnWorkHandler(ASender: TObject; AWorkMode: TWorkMode; AWorkCount: Integer); public constructor Create

I want to know the number of current client connections to an Indy 9 TIdTCPServer (on Delphi 2007) I can't seem to find a property that gives this. I've tried incrementing/decrementing a counter on the server OnConnect/OnDisconnect events, but the number never seems to decrement when a client disconnects. Any suggestions? The currently active clients are stored in the server's Threads property, which is a TThreadList . Simply lock the list, read its Count property, and then unlock the list: procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var NumClients: Integer; begin with IdTCPServer1.Threads

Anybody getting JSON to work with TIdHttp ? The PHP always return NULL in the $_POST , am I doing anything wrong ? Delphi source: http := TIdHttp.Create(nil); http.HandleRedirects := True; http.ReadTimeout := 5000; http.Request.ContentType := 'application/json'; jsonToSend := TStringStream.Create('{"name":"Peter Pan"}'); jsonToSend.Position := 0; Memo1.Lines.Text := http.Post('http://www.website.com/test.php', jsonToSend); jsonToSend.free; http.free; PHP source: <?php $value = json_decode($_POST); var_dump($value); ?> You can't use a TStringList to post JSON data. TIdHTTP.Post() will encode

I am sure I'm doing something wrong here. I've followed every example I can find on stackoverflow and still haven't gotten this to work in my environment. I'd love to update my controls and environment, but I'm currently locked in with what I have. I am using: Delphi 7 Indy 10.0.52 ulkJSON.pas v1.07 I need to send this JSON to a URL: "auth": { "applicationId": "appID", "applicationPassword": "pwd", "accountId": "acct", "userId": "dev" } There isn't anything terribly crazy about this, but when I try to post my request I tend to get a message that the request was Closed Gracefully.

I have built a simple website monitoring application using Indy TIdhttp component. I want to detect when a designated page is not returned within a specified time frame (I am using 5000 milliseconds). As a test I created a page on a web site which intentionally takes 15 seconds to respond. But I can't get my procedure to "give up" after the 5 seconds. I have tried ReadTimeout , a suggested solution using a timer and the OnWorkBegin event (was never able to get OnWorkBegin to fire immediately after the get call). Note I am not worried about a connection timeout. My concern here is a timeout for
