Unable to load XMLDOM from OUTSTREAM in RTC?

pdj

NAV2009 R2 - I have this code, which works fine in the classic client:

Variables:
OutStreamXSL: OutStream		
xmldomXSL: Automation: 'Microsoft XML, v6.0'.DOMDocument	

Code:
SomeRec.GET;
SomeRec.CALCFIELDS("Some BLOB Field");
IF NOT SomeRec."Some BLOB Field".HASVALUE THEN
  ERROR('Some error');
SomeRec."Some BLOB Field".CREATEOUTSTREAM(OutStreamXSL);
CREATE(xmldomXSL);
xmldomXSL.load(OutStreamXSL);
MESSAGE(xmldomXSL.documentElement.nodeName);

This works fine in the Classic client, but the MESSAGE gives me an "The automation variable has not been instantiated." in the RTC. The code needs to work in both the Classic Client and the RTC so using .NET Interop is not an option. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I have tried with CREATE(xmldomXSL,TRUE,TRUE) but that gives me an error: "Streams cannot be used with client-side invoked automation objects.". I don't wish to do it client side, so there is no need to "solve" this issue.

deV.ch

the 3rd parameter if the function Create specifies if the automation is created on the client, you set true so its client siede isntead of server-side!

[Ok :=] CREATE(Automation [,NewServer] [,OnClient])

So you need to call it this way: CREATE(xmldomXSL,true,false)

pdj

Which is why there is no need to look further at the CREATE statement :-)

It seems it is my mistake - I'm using OutStreams where I should use InStreams :oops:
Apparently the classic client doesn't mind... :?

Can you post your code, as I'm still having the same issue?

Thanks in advance

Well, it is a long time ago, but I'm quite sure I just replaced the OutStream variable with an InStream variable. (And the CREATEOUTSTREAM with CREATEINSTREAM)

Okay thanks. I done that.

I'm still getting issue but hoping it will be resolved when running it as a web service rather than from a report which I was doing to test it.
