SetRequestHeader Method

Allows the user to set or add arbitrary HTTP request headers.

Syntax

as2sender.setRequestHeader(headerName, headerValue, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

HeaderName should contain the header name, and HeaderValue should contain its value. Use this to set headers such as To, Date, etc. Note that a default value for Date will automatically be determined and this method may be used to override the default.

SetRequestHeader may be used to set any header except for the following: AS2-To, AS2-From, AS2-Version, Subject, Message-Id, Disposition-Notification-To, Disposition-Notification-Options, Receipt-Delivery-Option, Host, Content-Length.
