com.HTTPServiceRequest.getURL

Returns the URL of the HTTP service request.

Syntax

getURL()
  RETURNING result STRING

Usage

The getURL() method returns the entire URL request containing the host, port, document and query string.

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).

URLs are sent in UTF-8 on the network. If the query part of the URL cannot be converted from UTF-8 to the fglrun locale charset, STATUS will be set to -15552. Is this case, the document part of the URL is available, but the query string must be retrieved through HTTPServiceRequest.readFormEncodedRequest(). As a general advice, run you WS server program in UTF-8.
