Error when getting JSON data from REST services

thghst · ‎03-18-2013

Hi,

I’m trying to GET JSON data from REST service then parse the JSON data.

I have managed to do it on a browser but, I seem to have blatantly failed

to do the same with Cascades.

var obj = {};
//var resp = "";
//Create XMLHttpRequest Objects
function createRequest(){
  var result = null;
  result = new XMLHttpRequest();
  return result;
};
        
//Use XMLHttpRequest
var req = createRequest(); // defined above
        
//Create the callback
req.onreadystatechange = function() {
  if (req.readyState != 4) return; // Not there yet
    if (req.status != 200) {
      // Handle request failure here...
        return;
    }
  };
        
  var GetData = function(url){
  //Send the Request
  req.open("GET", url, true);
  req.send();
        	
  //Request successful, read the response
  resp = req.responseText;  // Non-parsed JSON response
        	
  //... and use it as needed (Parse it)
  //obj = JSON && JSON.parse(resp) || $.parseJSON(resp);
  //obj = eval(resp);
  obj = JSON.parse(resp);
        	
  return obj;
  //return resp;
};

var data = GetData("http://app.compleatgolfer.co.za/service?view=provinces&token=gxRT67ALqp");

This works on IE browser but not on Cascades.

When i try

console.log(rep.status)

or

console.log(rep.responseText)

I get "undefined"

Any help would be apreaciated.

Note: The code above, in my project, start on the 3rd line of the code below:

Page {
    onCreationCompleted: {

    }
}

Thanks

Welcome!
