Question

The MSDN documentation on WinHttpCrackurl makes a point of saying it runs "synchronously". But, could someone provide some authoritative documentation that says WinHttpCrackurl does or does not attempt a network connection? I've searched fruitlessly and would like to avoid disassembling the function. Thanks.

Was it helpful?

Solution

WinHttpCrackUrl() DOES NOT use the network in any way. There is no documentation that states that, but all it does is parses the input string into its individual components, nothing more, so there is no need for the network.
