Create MIME Containing XML

See more MIME Examples

Calls SetBodyFromXml to load XML into the MIME body. Also sets the Content-Type header to "text/xml", and the Content-Transfer-Encoding to an appropriate transfer encoding based on the characters found in the XML.

Dim mime As ChilkatMime
mime.Initialize

'  Add a few header fields:
success = mime.AddHeaderField("Description", "this is a test")
success = mime.AddHeaderField("MyId", "123")

Dim xmlData As String = "<something>123</something>"

'  Set the mime body via SetBodyFromXml.  This also
'  has the intended side-effect of adding the Content-Type
'  and Content-Transfer-Encoding headers.
success = mime.SetBodyFromXml(xmlData)

Log(mime.GetMime)

'  The MIME should look like this:

'  Description: this is a test
'  MyId: 123
'  Content-Type: text/xml; 
'  Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
'  
'  <something>123</something>

'  Note: The Content-Transfer-Encoding may be changed.
'  For example, to use "base64", do this:
mime.Encoding = "base64"

'  Show the MIME again, this time using the base64 
'  transfer encoding:
Log(mime.GetMime)

'  It should look like this:

'  Description: this is a test
'  MyId: 123
'  Content-Type: text/xml; 
'  Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
