SessionParameters string value being truncated

rbuser

Hello

I have the following string

content=Viewer&Volume=STC
Reports&Name=Dummy&UserID=15&CustomerID=11&StartDate=1 September 2005
00:00&EndDate=30 September 2005
23:30&Meters=2000051634739&RANK=1&ReportID=15&ReportType=1&LocName=Ash
Vale - Astute
Class&PeriodType=3&Duration=4&UnitsType=1&CT=0&MD=1&LocationSelection=Ash
Vale - Astute Class&Pred=0&ReportPeriod=

I then assign this string into a session parameter using the code below

objWebRequest.SessionParameters['QueryString'].Value:=strQueryString;

content=Viewer&Volume=STC
Reports&Name=Dummy&UserID=15&CustomerID=11&StartDate=1 September 2005
00:00&EndDate=30 September 2005
23:30&Meters=2000051634739&RANK=1&ReportID=15&ReportType=1&LocName=Ash
Vale - Astute Class&PeriodType=3&Duration=4&UnitsType=1&CT

Does anyone know what is happening here? The length of the truncated string
is 330 which seems to be a strange number to limit the parameters to

Cheers

For an http Get the length of the URL string is limited. However forr a Post
there is no limit.

I do not think the SessionParameters has a limit on the length of a
parameter string. The parameter values are stored as Variants (see
ppParameter.pas in RBuilder\Source).

Hi Nard

I know that they are stored in variants, but when I step through the code I
can clearly see the value being truncated?

Truncated by the debugger output? Or the variant? Or RB?

Try creating a simple example...

uses
ppParameter;

begin

myParameter := TppParameter.Create(nil);
myParameter.Value := {some huge string);

myHugeString := myParameter.Value;

end;


Does that code work?
