"sending xml over http"

[Erez_Farhi]

I want to send an XML file to an IP address over http
protocol.

DataSocket can read and write HTTP documents, however you must have an HTTP server that will accept you writing the file. You can use any DataSocket example, in the address instead of "dstp://mmyComputer/myData" you pass "http://myComputer/myFile" and DataSocket will attempt to open an http connection.

CVI 7.1 has now included FTP libraries that you could also use to send the file to an FTP server instead. I see this is as an easier rout to set up, but it depends on your application.

I hope this helps.

Hi,
The computer I'm sending the xml file runs under linux.
Will it work using DataSocket ?

[JuanCarlos]

Yes, Datasocket will send the file in HTTP protocol of FTP protocol if you go that route. These ethernet protocols are independent of the OS. You CVI app will run on a Windows Machine only, but the hppt or FTP server can be on any OS.

Good Luck.
