Hi,  
There is this method

method ExecuteRequestSynchronous(aRequest: not nullable HttpRequest; aThrowOnError: Boolean): nullable HttpResponse;

Does it really have to be private ?

I don’t want to be catching exceptions. The following would be preferred.

```
      if(response.Success)then
      begin

```

Looking at the code, I think if I could call that overload, it would return a response where success is false ?  
Cheers,  
John

isn’t that what

```
method TryExecuteRequestSynchronous(aRequest: not nullable HttpRequest): nullable HttpResponse;

```

is for?
