Eddie Awad’s Blog: XML Goodness in SQL - Part 1
-
John Flack · 1 year agoI don't know how I missed HTTPURIType.getxml in the Oracle docs. It makes dealing with REST web services like the Google Maps API geocoder much easier. I'd been using UTL_HTTP, getting the data in pieces as a CLOB, then casting it as an XMLTYPE. This skips all that stuff. Thanks for pointing it out.

Eddie Awad · 1 year ago@John yes, HTTPURIType is very handy. I wish it could handle basic HTTP authentication as well.
