OutboundXMLBind

OutboundXMLBind

The OutboundXMLBind handler can post XML to a remote server using the HTTP protocol.

To create the XML content, use the BIND, SET and WRITE commands before using the SEND command.

When the SEND command of this content handler is executed the following steps occur:

If content is being posted, then the handler determines if this Unicode data needs to be archived.

The handler uses the value of the CONTENT keyword to determine the value of the HTTP protocol content-type.

• If no content value is available, the handler defaults to application/xml
• If the content value is *XML, then content type will be application/xml
• If the content value is *TEXTXML, then content type will be text/xml

The service property outbound.xml.default.contenttype can be used to set the default content type.
