com.HttpServiceRequest.readXmlRequest

Returns the request body as an XML document.

Syntax

readXmlRequest()
  RETURNS xml.DomDocument

Usage

The readXmlRequest() method returns the request as an entire XML document, contained in a xml.DomDocument object.

Supported methods are: PUT, POST, PATCH, and DELETE.
Warning:

A message body is allowed in a DELETE request, but clients may ignore it if they do not support it.

The request Content-Type header must be of the form */xml or */*+xml. For example: application/xhtml+xml.

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).

The int_flag variable is checked during GWS API call to handle program interruptions, for more details, see Interruption handling in GWS calls (int_flag)
