Re: Question about http_url_post_raw2()

["Mario Martoriello" <martoriello@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Scott
thank you for your answer. I try to explain my problem better. I have some 
problem reading a web service response that contains German characters, see 
my prevoius post. In this project I use both Httpapi and WSDL2RPG. When my 
program read the webservice response that contains german characters it ends 
abnormally saying that there was a wrong encoding character. The web service 
provider tells that the encoding was correct. So, according with Thomas 
Raddatz,  I modified the program where I read the answer and using the 
http_url_post_raw2()  I wrote the answer into a ifs file. The code snippet 
is:
fd2 = open('/tmp/logmm.log'
        : O_CREAT + O_TRUNC + O_WRONLY
        : S_IRWXU + S_IRWXG + S_IRWXO);
dou (not HttpResponse_isAuthenticationError(http_rc));
  // Get document from server and handle http redirects
  // See also: WSDL2R88.HttpResponse_isRedirect()
  dou (not HttpResponse_isRedirect(http_rc));
     http_DebugLog_appendText(
     '** ' + %char(%timestamp()) + ': Sending request to server');

     http_rc =
        http_url_post_raw2(
           url
           : hInpStream
           : %paddr('WSDL2R85_MessageContext_InputStream_read')
           : MessageContext_getSize(hMsgCtx)
           : fd2
           : %paddr('write')
           : getTimeout()
           : getUserAgent()
           : '');

      callp close(fd2);
      leave;
Enddo ;
What I would like to have in the 'tmp/logmm.log' file is the webservice 
answer as is alias in utf-8 but when I saw  with  Notepad++ it was in ANSI. 
Where is my mistake? And what is your opinion about this error for the 
german char that I receive from EXPAT?
Best regards
Mario

Mario,

You are telling the open() API to create the file in EBCDIC, but you are
telling me that the data is UTF-8.  I don't understand why you are doing
that?

http_url_post_raw2() never translates data.  So if you tell the open()
data that it should use EBCDIC, but the data is UTF-8, the file will be
marked with the wrong CCSID, and that will confuse any program that
relies on the CCSID.
