HTTPAPI TOO FAST

["McCall, Steve" <Smccall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

HTTPAPI  too fast  In the response to this question (www.scottklement.com/archives/ftpapu/200508/msg00067.html). Says to fix this problem add code similar to the following that runs before you call http_url_post (or post_raw, or post_xml, or whatever)

 

// wait up to 5 seconds for a 100-continue response:

http_Set_100_timeout(5):

 

How do I do this in rpgle? Can you show me an example?

 

My program does the following.  

 

C                   eval      data = '' +          

C                             ' encoding="utf-8"?>' +                 

C                             '<soap:Envelope xmlns' +                

C                             ':xsi="http://www.w3.org' +             

C                             '/2001/XMLSchema-instance" '+           

C                             'xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org'+         

C                             '/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap="http://' +

            Etc.

 

Then    

 

c                   eval      rc = http_persist_post( comm         

c                                   : url                          

c                                   : 0                            

c                                   : *NULL                        

c                                   : %addr(data)                  

c                                   : %len(%trimr(data))           

c                                   : 1                            

c                                   : %paddr('INCOMING')           

c                                   : 20                           

c                                   : 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; OS400)'

c                                   : 'text/xml'    

           Etc.

 

The program sends & receives just fine, but it gets quite a few time-outs and has to resend a lot.

It would save a lot of cycles if it did not have to do so many re-sends.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
