RE: SOAP and RPG

You can definitely parse a buffer with XML4PR400, and it is pretty much the
same whether you are using DOM or SAX.  Here is some code that should help
you out.  It isn't complete, but it will get you going in the right
direction. . .


     P XMLSAX_parseMemory...
     P                 B                   Export
     D XMLSAX_parseMemory...
     D                 PI
     D  pXML                      65535A   Value
     D  pValidation                  10I 0 Value Options(*NoPass)
     D  pNameSpaces                  10I 0 Value Options(*NoPass)

     D docLength       S             10I 0 Inz(%Size(pXML))
     D SAXParser       S               *
     D memBuff         S               *
     D docName         S               *
     D temp            S            100A
     D begXMLDecl      S             10I 0
     D endXMLDecl      S             10I 0
      /Free

       Select;
       When %Parms > 1;
         SAXParser = XMLSAX_createParser(pValidation);
       When %Parms > 2;
         SAXParser = XMLSAX_createParser(pValidation: pNameSpaces);
       EndSl;

       temp = %Subst(pXML:1:100);
       begXMLDecl = %Scan('<?':temp);
       endXMLDecl = %Scan('?>':temp);

       // If an XML Declaration wasn't found, add one because the document
wont parse without one.
       // If one was found, just replace it with one that is guarnteed to
work.
       If begXMLDecl < 1;
         pXML = '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="IBM037"?>' + x'25' + pXML;
       Else;
         pXML = %Replace(
           '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="IBM037"?>':
           pXML: begXMLDecl: endXMLDecl-begXMLDecl+2);
       EndIf;

       XMLSAX_setEncoding(Qxml_UNICODE);

       docName = %Alloc(10);
       %Str(docName:6) = 'MemDoc';

       memBuff =
         QxmlMemBufInputSource_new(
           %Addr(pXML): docLength: docName: Qxml_CCSID37: 0: 0);

       QxmlSAXParser_parse_inputSource(SAXParser: memBuff);
       QxmlMemBufInputSource_delete(memBuff);

       XMLSAX_destroySAXParser(SAXParser);

       Return;

      /End-Free
     P XMLSAX_parseMemory...
     P                 E

Subject: SOAP and RPG

I'm developing an rpg as web service program, and i want to use soap
protocol to call it!
I can't use xml4pr400 because it riquire an xml file not xml string!
Is there a way to parse xml-soap string buffer into RPG array?
Thanks in advance!
Regards!!
Vincenzo!!
