Reading a XML on the server

[Serban]

Hi

I have two applications(client and server) that pass an
XML document but I have a hard time reading the XML
document on the server side.

So the client application creates the XML document and
sends it to the server. On the server side I want to
load/read this XML document.

Any suggestions would be most welcome,

Thank you in advance

What server is that, IIS running ASP.NET? Is the XML sent with a HTTP
request?

Yes is an IIS server with ASp.net.
The XML is send(POST) using HTTPWebRequest / StreamWriter
Thank you

You can simply load the InputStream of the Request:

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Xml" %>
<script runat="server">
void Page_Load () {
XmlDocument postedXml = new XmlDocument();
postedXml.Load(Request.InputStream);
Response.Write("Found " + postedXml.GetElementsByTagName("*").Count +
" elements.");
}
</script>
The following posts some XML file to that ASP.NET page:

using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;

public class Test20030112 {
public static void Main (string[] args) {
HttpWebRequest httpRequest = (HttpWebRequest)
WebRequest.Create(@"http://localhost/javascript/test20031202.aspx");
httpRequest.Method = "POST";
httpRequest.ContentType = "text/xml";
FileStream fileStream = new FileStream(@"test20031202.xml",
FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
byte[] requestBody = new byte[fileStream.Length];
fileStream.Read(requestBody, 0, (int) fileStream.Length);
httpRequest.ContentLength = requestBody.Length;
Stream requestStream = httpRequest.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(requestBody, 0, requestBody.Length);
requestStream.Close();
HttpWebResponse httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)
httpRequest.GetResponse();
Console.WriteLine(new
StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()).Rea dToEnd());
}
}
