XMLPort - Filename

kaza

I am trying to access the filename of the imported file when using an XMLPort.
I have followed a suggestion posted in Mibuso - but I still do not seem to be able to access the file name.

In the XMLPort (fro importing) I have created a function and set the variable equal to the parameter
setFileName(inFile :Text[30]);
gtxtFileName := inFile;

I then set the record variable with the value
myTable.FileName := gFileName;


In the Codeunit that calls the XMLPort, Ih ave included the following code (and have called the setFileName function)

gFile.OPEN(gtxtFileName);
gFile.CREATEINSTREAM(inStreamFile);
gXMLPort.setFileName(gtxtFileNameBuffer);
XMLPORT.IMPORT(50004,inStreamFile); //Import Billling XMLPort
gFile.CLOSE;

Note:- In order to call the setFileName function I could not use the XMLPort ID of 50004 (as required by the IMPORT function) and so I created a global variable called gXMLPort (which relates to XMLPort 50004).

PROBLEM:
The filename does not appear to get passed to the setFilename function. (or is not retained in memory by the global variable - gFileName).

I would appreciate any suggestions why this is not working - or is there any other way to get the filename that is entered into the RequestPage for the XMLPort import?

Thanks

could you paste your setFileName functuion?

This can't work you need to call :

gXMLPort.SETSOURCE(inStreamFile)
gXMLPort.IMPORT


What you did is pass the Filename to another instance of the XMLPort not the one taht is called trough XMLPORT.IMPORT();

Thanks very much for your assistance.

In the above post , I see that I used two different variable names relating to the setFilename Function. That was a typo error in the post, as my code did contain the same variable name in the setFilename function and the variable used for setting the record value....

I have got the XMLport to work...
I used the SETSOURCE function, together with the global variable gXMLPort (which references dataport 50001)

gFile.OPEN(gtxtFileName);
gFile.CREATEINSTREAM(inStreamFile);
//XMLPORT.IMPORT(50001,inStreamFile); //50001 => ImportBillling XMLPort
gXMLPort.setFileName(gtxtFileName);
gXMLPort.SETSOURCE(inStreamFile);
gXMLPort.IMPORT;
gFile.CLOSE;

Thanks again.
cheers
