peoplecodeapi - CreateXmlDoc

Syntax

CreateXmlDoc(XmlString, DTDValidation)

Description

Use the CreateXmlDoc function to create an XmlDoc object. If you specify a Null string for XmlString (""), you create an empty XmlDoc object.

Parameters

Field or Control	Definition
`XmlString`	Specify an XML string that you want to convert into an XmlDoc object that you can then manipulate using PeopleCode. You can also specify a Null string ("") to generate an empty XmlDoc object.
`DTDValidation`	Specify whether a DTD should be validated. This parameter takes a boolean value. If you specify true, the DTD validation occurs if a DTD is provided. If you specify false, and if a DTD is provided, it is ignored and the XML isn't validated against the DTD. False is the default value. In the case of application messaging, if a DTD is provided, it's always ignored and the XML isn't validated against the DTD. If the XML cannot be validated against a DTD, an error is thrown saying that there was an XML parse error.
