xml_ParseBLOB ( parserID; BLOBtoParse) --> errorCode

• --> parserID : longint
• --> BLOBtoParse : blob
• <-- errorCode : longint

Parses the XML BLOB passed in "BLOBtoParse" using the XML parser identified by "parserID". The BLOB should contain a complete XML document allowing you to easily convert documents stored in files by using 4D's DOCUMENT TO BLOB command then xml_ParseBLOB. The BLOB is not duplicated in RAM so this method is in some ways more efficient that xml_Parse, even on small documents.
