HTTP POST Request with XML file in

Hi @ all,

I would like to send an HTTP Request with an XML File in the body to an SAP System

I have the target URL and the a XML File.

Now the question is. Is it possible to use something like the HTTP_POST FuBa to send an url post request with an xml file?

If yes can anybody give me a hint?

I have a php script which exactly do this coding. But to integrate it all in one system it is necessary to transform it into ABAP and call it there.

// compose url and request and call send function

function test($productID, $categoryID) {

// create url

$PIhost = "XXX.wdf.sap.corp";

$PIport = "50080";

$PIurl = "/sap/xi/adapter_plain";

$PIurl .= "?sap-client=800";

$PIurl .= "&service=XXX";

$PIurl .= "&namespace=XXX";

$PIurl .= "&interface=Frontend_Interface";

$PIurl .= "&qos=EO";

$PIurl .= "&sap-user=XXX";

$PIurl .= "&sap-password=XXX";

// create xml

$request = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n";

$request .="<n1:FrontendInbound_MessageType xmlns:n1=\"http://crmpiebay.com\">\n";

$request .= "\t<FrontendInbound>\n";

$request .= "\t\t<ProductName/>\n";

$request .= "\t\t<ProductCategory>".$categoryID."</ProductCategory>\n";

$request .= "\t\t<ProductID>".$productID."</ProductID>\n";

$request .= "\t\t<MessageID/>\n";

$request .= "\t</FrontendInbound>\n";

$request .= "</n1:FrontendInbound_MessageType>";

// send http request

postToHost($PIhost, $PIport, $PIurl, $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].":".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"]."/".$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"], $request);

}

// send post request to PI server

function postToHost($host, $port, $path, $referer, $data_to_send) {

$fp = fsockopen($host, $port);

if($fp) {

$res="";

fputs($fp, "POST $path HTTP/1.1\r\n");

fputs($fp, "Host: $host\r\n");

fputs($fp, "Referer: $referer\r\n");

fputs($fp, "Content-type: text/plain\r\n");

fputs($fp, "Content-length: ". strlen($data_to_send) ."\r\n");

fputs($fp, "Connection: close\r\n\r\n");

fputs($fp, $data_to_send);

while(!feof($fp)) {

$res .= fgets($fp, 128);

}

fclose($fp);

return $res;

}

Would be great if anybody could give me a hint how to solve such a HTTP Post request with XML body data.

Thanks in advance.

Chris
