Re: FW: Xml-into limits

[Scott Klement <rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not aware of any per-record limit.  (By record, I'm actually 
assuming you mean a particular set of XML tags.)

There's a limit to the maximum size of an array, a maximum size of a 
data structure, etc...  these may very well be the limits you are 
encountering.  Many of these limits changed in v6r1 (versus v5r4) so 
knowing the error message you're getting, plus the release level will 
give us a lot more info.

How these limits affect you will depend on the layout of your XML. In a 
simple XML document, the %HANDLER BIF might be all you need to bypass 
the limit.  In a more complex document, you may have to resort to XML-SAX.

Here are some articles that might help (depending on what the problem 
actually is):
