I am unsure of what you are trying to do here. It appears you have both
request and response type headers (i.e. POST and filename). Though it may
be that I just haven't ever tried to use that combination of headers or
approach.

I am guessing you are trying to do an HTTP POST with an XML file to a remote
web service? You should end up sending something like below:

POST /folder/calcprc HTTP/1.0

Accept: text/xml

User-Agent: xml4rpg

Host: 192.168.123.123

Content-type: text/xml

Content-length: 79



<calcPriceRequest><item id="HDR4423" /><customer id="123"
/></calcPriceRequest>


<vendor>
BTW, if you are looking to get around the details of doing an HTTP post you
can use RPG-XML Suite (www.rpg-xml.com) which wrap a lot of the complexities
into simple API calls.

All,

Can you please look at the piece of code...

Client Request:
C eval request = 'POST '+ %trim(file) +
C ' HTTP/1.1' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request = 'Host: ' + %trim(host) +
C x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request='Content-Type: multipart/form-dat
C 'boundary=' +
C 'AaB03x' +
C x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request = 'Content-Length: 59' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request ='--AaB03x' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta
C eval request = 'Content-Disposition: '+
C 'form-data; name='+'"version"'+
C x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request ='--AaB03x' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta
C eval request = 'Content-Disposition:'+
C ' form-data; name='+
C ' "forx"' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request = 'Content-Type: text/xml;' +
C ' charset= utf-8, boundary = BbC04y' +
C x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C eval request ='--BbC04y' + x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta
C eval request = 'Content-Disposition:'+
C ' attachment; filename = ' +
C '"/bala/test.xml"' +
C x'0D25'+ x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

C exsr sendFile (Reading IFS file and send thro
socket)
C eval request = x'0D25'
C exsr sendDta

In sendDta is converting ascii to ebcdic format and write thro socket.
