How to know if QNetworkReply has a body?

FujuMazzr

I'm wondering, how to know if QNetworkReply has a body? I tried find and I couldn't find any method like ->hasBody or something like that.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

There's nothing like that. You have to parse the content of the reply that you received.

@SGaist With parse you mean, put the reply->readAll() in a QString and check if it is empty?

SGaist

Yes, but checking for empty depends on what request you did. You can have a valid empty answer i.e. status code 200 for an operation that doesn't answer anything particular.

@SGaist Yes, I know, I'm making a few tests with a local server and that is exactly the idea, to check if the body is empty, not the status code or anything else, only if the body is empty.

I thought that Qt would have a method or something like hasBody, but I can live with that.

Thank you.
