Re: HTTPAPI 1.11 pre-release - truncating data on a POST
That worked like a charm, thanks!
I actually have three variable that I need to send to my vendor. The first 2 are short and the 3rd one is long.
I tried it using http_url_encoder_addvar() for all three. Successfully!
I also tried it using http_url_encoder_addvar_s() for the first 2, and http_url_encoder_addvar on the 3rd. Successfully!
Is there any advantage to using one over the other, Other than simplicity?
Hi Eric,

The HTTP_url_encoder_addvar_s() routine can only handle an input value of
256 characters or less. Note the prototype:
D http_url_encoder_addvar_s...
D PR 1N
D peEncoder like(HTTP_URL_ENCODER) value
D peVariable 50A varying value
D peValue 256A varying value
See how the last parameter is 256A? That means it'll truncate anything
longer than that.
There's another API called http_url_encoder_addvar() that's not limited in
length (but unfortunately is slightly more cumbersome to use -- that's why
addvar_s was added in fact, it was to simplify things somewhat)
Try changing your code so that it looks like this:
c callp http_url_encoder_addvar( Enc
c : 'input'
c : %addr(ApiInp)+2
c : %len(ApiInp) )
That version of the code does not have the same length restrictions.
Please let us know if this works, or if it doesn't.
Thanks
