Re: Value String larger than 65535
Note to self: Definitely need an example of HTTP_xmlReturnPtr() in the
EXAMPLE programs.

Yes. HTTPAPI returns 65535A because it's easy to work with, but it's
also capable of returning a pointer and a length. When this is done,
the length can be as large as 16mb per element.
To use this feature, you must do the following BEFORE calling any
routines that work with XML:
http_XmlReturnPtr(*ON);
This tells HTTPAPI to return a pointer instead of a string, making it
possible to handle longer elements.
Then you'll want to update your End Element Handler (it looks like
you've named yours "Incoming") to receive a DS containing a pointer and
a length, like this:
D value_t ds qualified
D valptr *
D len 10i 0
D Incoming PR
D userdata * value
D depth 10I 0 value
D name 1024A varying const
D path 24576A varying const
D retval likeds(value_t)
D Attrs * dim(32767)
Now you can handle up to 16mb for the element's value, but of course,
you have to use pointer logic to access the data. (That's the best I
can do without requiring v6r1 or higher to use HTTPAPI!)
