How to recieve a Xml file as webdynpro application parameter

[Former Member]

Hi There,

We are trying to call WD application via a VB script(user run this from their PC) which will generate a XMl file and will launch a url to call WD application. Now we have to capture this xml content from VB script and need to pass this to WD and further to RFC as internal tables.

1) What are possible ways to pass xml content to WD application, will be great if you elaborate a little.

2) Can we use String as parameter which will have XML content in string format, if yes then what could be possible drawbacks of this method.

Thanks a lot for your time,

Regards,

Hi,

You can use fileUpload UI to upload a XML file and then manipulate it according to your need.

If you need to do it internally then you can read it from a particular destination using InputStream. I dont find any drawbacks in converting the content of XML as String.

thanks & regards,

Hi Sudhir,

How are you calling the webdynpro application from VBScript? Is it by opening a new browser window with the URL?

One option is to append the generated XML to the url (the GET method). But not suggested.

So, the XML must be provided by the POST method.

This means that you need to do a HTTP POST directly from your VBScript. So it depends on how you call the webdypro application using its URL.
