Set a MIME Body from XML

Demonstrates the Chilkat Mime.SetBodyFromXml method, which sets the body as XML, changes the media type to text/xml, and selects an appropriate transfer encoding. The only argument is the XML text.

Background: This produces an XML-typed part, common in machine-to-machine messaging — SOAP, AS2/EDI payloads, structured data attachments. Marking the content text/xml lets the receiver route and parse it correctly, and Chilkat picks a transfer encoding that preserves the XML across the transport.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

JavaScript

var success = false;

//  Demonstrates the Mime.SetBodyFromXml method, which sets the body as XML and changes the media
//  type to text/xml.  The only argument is the XML text.

var mime = new CkMime();

var xml = "<note><to>Bob</to><from>Alice</from><body>Hello</body></note>";
success = mime.SetBodyFromXml(xml);
if (success == false) {
    console.log(mime.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

console.log("Content-Type: " + mime.ContentType);
