RE: parsing help
Without knowing how the web service logs you in, it is hard to know how to log you out unless the webservice provides such a function.
A common technique is that the login sends back some cookies. These cookies then provide the needed information to make sure you are a validated user. If look in your debug listing, you might see this happening. HTTPAPI does not have a destroy cookie function but the ordinary cookies are destroyed when the activation group ends. So, it would be possible to create your program that calls the web service in its own activation group and that would allow you to reclaim the activation group after running the program.
FWIW, Unless this is belt and suspenders, government work or high security issue, I would not worry about logging out of the web service. There is a lot of security by obscurity involved with the IBMi and HTTPAPI and it probably is not worth the effort to write a destroy_cookie routine. However, if you do, please share!

Yes, when I return the XML from the web service using the command it is
built in to call the procedure PARSERTRNXML... Code as follows:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// send and get the response, and parse it as an XML document.
// http_url_get_xml() will call the PARSERTRNXML procedure
// for each XML tag found.
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
rc = http_url_get_xml( uri: *null: %paddr(PARSERTRNXML): *null);
// If error on process then display message to user
if (rc <> 1);
@MSGID = 'CMS9898';
@MSGFI = 'CISMSGFILE';
@MSGDA = 'Error while processing data with server';
$ERRMSG = 'Error while processing data with server';
Now the procedure in the program itself is like this:
D PARSERTRNXML PR
D userData * value
D depth 10I 0 value
D name 1024A varying const
D path 24576A varying const
D value 65535A varying const
D attrs * dim(32767)
D const options(*varsize)
P PARSERTRNXML B
D PI
D userData * value
D depth 10I 0 value
D name 1024A varying const
D path 24576A varying const
D value 65535A varying const
D attrs * dim(32767)
D const options(*varsize)
D title s 24576a varying static
D a s 10i 0
D attrName s 1024a varying
D attrVal s 65535a varying
*** Then the code I sent earlier to you as an example. ***
NOTE: This code is similar to what is in the example program for the
weather forcast (sorry I do not remember what program that was) that is
in the examples in Scott's Package.
Good Luck,

Hey George thanksI have this in my program except just like with
example17 I used the embedded prototype and I don't see it working. the
only exception I see is where you are using the HTTP_nextXMLAttr in a
dowhile. are you calling this in a routine?

I had to do this for parsing the XML coming back from VIN look ups we
do and here is how I done it... I think this may be what your looking
for at least???
in the D specs:
D name 1024A varying const
D path 24576A varying const
D value 65535A varying const
D a s 10i 0
D attrName s 1024a varying
D attrVal s 65535a varying
In the code:
individual tags:
//*******************************************************
//**** Bring Back the Values when <<VIN DATA>>passed in**
//*******************************************************
if path = '/PolkServiceResponse/VinData';
select;
when name='vin';
eval SAVVIN = Value;
when name='correctedVin';
eval SUGVIN = Value;
// HANDLE INDIVIDUAL ATTRIBUTES IN THE VDTA RETURN XML //
when name='fields';
A = 1;
dow HTTP_nextXmlAttr( attrs: a: attrName: attrVal );
select;
when attrVal = 'ABS_BRK_CD';
WK_VNDATA(1) = Value;
when attrVal = 'BODY_STYLE_CD';
WK_VNDATA(9) = Value;
I do load this data to another array for other uses but this should
give you an Idea of how to handle the tags in the XML being returned.
Hope this helps you,

I have HTTPAPI and EXPAT loaded. I have attached a program I used
from
example 17. I call a web service and I am writing the return xml to
the
IFS /tmp folder. This all works YAiii! But for some reason I am
stuck
trying to parse the daggone return XML to my array.[ or even a field]
UGHHH! Can someone help push me in the right direction? I looked at
CHARDATA1 in the EXPAT examples and I kinda understand it
but....hmmmmhow do I pull this in? HeLP Donnie BarrowiSeries
