Rust Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Alabama Motor Fuel Excise Tax E-Filing SOAP XML POST (NewSubmission)

See more HTTP Misc Examples

Demonstrates how to post a NewSubmission to the Alabama MFET (Motor Fuel Excise Tax) e-File. Rust

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Also see Chilkat's Online WSDL Code Generator
// to generate code and SOAP Request and Response XML for each operation in a WSDL.

// Here is an example of an HTTP POST Request we'll be sending:

// POST /WebServices/MFET/ HTTP/1.1
// Content-Type: text/xml
// SOAPAction: NewSubmission
//  
// <soapenv:Envelope
//   xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
//   xmlns:tem="http://tempuri.org/"
//   xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
//   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
//   <soapenv:Header/>
//   <soapenv:Body>
//     <tem:NewSubmission>
//       <tem:UserName>yourusername</tem:UserName>
//       <tem:Password>yourpassword</tem:Password>
//       <tem:File xsi:type="xsd:base64Binary">TRANSMISSION_XML_FILE_CONTENTS_AS_BASE64</tem:File>
//     </tem:NewSubmission>
//   </soapenv:Body>
// </soapenv:Envelope>

// In the above XML, the "TRANSMISSION_XML_FILE_CONTENTS_AS_BASE64" contains the base64 encoded
// string of the XML file that contains "<Transmission> ... </Transmission>"
// First let's load the transmission XML file and get the contents as base64.
let sb_xml_file_data = chilkat::StringBuilder::new();

// We can get the base64 result like this:
