Create MIME Containing XML

Calls SetBodyFromXml to load XML into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/xml", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the XML.

LOCAL loMime
LOCAL lnSuccess
LOCAL lcXmlData

loMime = CreateObject('Chilkat.Mime')

lnSuccess = loMime.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial.")
IF (lnSuccess = 0) THEN
    ? loMime.LastErrorText
    QUIT
ENDIF

*  Add a few header fields:
loMime.AddHeaderField("Description","this is a test")
loMime.AddHeaderField("MyId","123")

lcXmlData = "<something>123</something>"

*  Set the mime body via SetBodyFromXml.  This also
*  has the intended side-effect of adding the Content-Type
*  and Content-Transfer-Encoding headers.
loMime.SetBodyFromXml(lcXmlData)

? loMime.GetMime()

*  The MIME should look like this:
*  
Description: this is a test
MyId: 123
Content-Type: text/xml; 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

<something>123</something>

*  Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
*  For example, to use "base64", do this:
loMime.Encoding = "base64"

*  Show the MIME again, this time using the base64
*  transfer encoding:
? loMime.GetMime()

*  It should look like this:
*  
Description: this is a test
MyId: 123
Content-Type: text/xml; 
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
