pub.soap.utils:getXOPObjectContent

xopObject	Object Optional. The object of type com.wm.util.XOPObject.
getAs	String Optional. The object type in which you want to retrieve the contents in the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance.
	Select...	To...
	base64String	Default. Retrieve the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as a base64-encoded string.
	bytes	Retrieve the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as a byte array.
	stream	Retrieve the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as an InputStream.

contentType	String Conditional. MIME type of the contents in the input com.wm.util.XOPObject instance. The contentType parameter is returned only if you have specified a value for the xopObject input parameter.
data	Document Contents of the input com.wm.util.XOPObject instance. If the xopObject input parameter is null, this parameter has a null value.
	Value	Description
	base64String	String Conditional. Returns the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as a base64-encoded string if the getAs input parameter is set to base64String.
	bytes	byte [] Conditional. Returns the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as a byte array if the getAs input parameter is set to bytes.
	stream	Object Conditional. Returns the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as an InputStream if the getAs input parameter is set to stream.

You use the object of type com.wm.util.XOPObject to send or receive data as an MTOM stream. For more information about MTOM streaming, see Web Services Developer’s Guide.

The content of the XOPObject can only be read one time. After you use the pub.soap.utils:getXOPObjectContent service to read the XOPObject content one time, subsequent attempts to re-read the XOPObject content will fail. It is recommended that after the XOPObject content is read that you drop it from the pipeline to make it clear to programming logic downstream that it is no longer available to be read.

When you set the getAs input parameter to stream so that the service returns the contents of the com.wm.util.XOPObject instance as a stream, the pub.soap.utils:getXOPObjectContent service does not automatically close the stream object. You can close the stream using the pub.io:close service.
