Syntax
SET-INPUT-SOURCE ( mode , { file | memptr | handle | longchar } )
|
-
mode
- A CHARACTER expression evaluating to "FILE", "MEMPTR", "HANDLE",
or "LONGCHAR" indicating whether the XML source
is a file, a MEMPTR, a WEB-CONTEXT system handle, or a LONGCHAR variable.
-
file
- A CHARACTER expression that indicates the name of a file that contains
the source XML text. This can be a relative pathname, an absolute pathname,
or an HTTP URL. Any relative pathname is relative to the current
working directory. The pathname can contain Unicode characters.
See OpenEdge Development: Internationalizing Applications for
more information about Unicode.
-
memptr
- A MEMPTR variable that contains the source XML text. The size
of the MEMPTR variable must match the size of the XML text.
-
handle
- A WEB-CONTEXT system handle. In a WebSpeed application, this directs
SAX-reader to get the XML source from WEB-CONTEXT.
-
longchar
- A LONGCHAR variable that contains the source XML text. The size of
the LONGCHAR variable must match the size of the XML text.
