Usage Notes

FNC_SetXML is used to set an XML return value or OUT parameter value using a memory buffer.

The XML handle xmlHandle is passed as input along with a pointer to the XML value. The XML value must be in the UNICODE character set.

Note that the XML value that is passed to this routine must contain well-formed XML data, otherwise you will get an error.

FNC_SetXML can only be called for inline XML values, that is XML values that are less than 64K, otherwise you will get an error.
