# 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.

puts [CkXml_getXml $xml]

# Note: If UncommonOptions contained "TakeResponseBody", then the response BodyStr will now be empty:
