name is the local name of the XML start element, cannot be NULL.

Usage

All startElement methods open a new scope and set the stream to a START_ELEMENT. Writing the corresponding endElement causes the scope to be closed.

In case of error, the method throws an exception and sets the STATUS variable. Depending on the error, a human-readable description of the problem is available in the SQLCA.SQLERRM register. See Error handling in GWS calls (STATUS).
