Demonstrates how to load the HTTP response body directly into an XML object. PowerBuilder

li_rc = loo_Xml.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Xml")

// If we wish to transfer (instead of copy) the XML from the HttpResponse to the Xml, then add the keyword "TakeResponseBody" to UncommonOptions
// This could save memory for extremely large XML responses.
loo_Resp.UncommonOptions = "TakeResponseBody"

loo_Resp.GetBodyXml(loo_Xml)

Write-Debug loo_Xml.GetXml()

// Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
Write-Debug "----"
Write-Debug loo_Resp.BodyStr
