QtmhRdStin and QzhbCgiParse Limitation

I have a bit of a problem.  I am trying to read in large XML documents in an
eRPG program using QzhbCgiParse and/or QtmhRdStin and have found that they
are limited to the maximum size a variable can be in RPG.  They don't allow
you to do multiple reads as I had expected.

Here is the documentation for QtmhRdStin and it states that only one read
can be done.  I am assuming the same is true for QzhbCgiParse.

3.12.2?SHELF=&DT=19960819152659

Can anybody tell me what I can do to get around this and still use RPG?  Is
it possible for the HTTP request to be passed off to a homegrown "Socket
Server" so I could obtain a handle and read in the request until I have
reached CONTENT_LENGTH?

Thx,
Aaron Bartell
