AckRequest Method

Optional. Acknowledges the incoming request.

Syntax

• C++
• Objective-C
• C

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int AckRequest();

Unicode (Windows)
INT AckRequest();

- (void)ackRequest;

#define MID_AS2RECEIVER_ACKREQUEST 2

IPWORKSEDI_EXTERNAL int IPWORKSEDI_CALL IPWorksEDI_AS2Receiver_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);

Remarks

When called from within a server environment, AckRequest will acknowledge the client request with a 200 OK. This may be useful if the client has posted a lot of data, and has requested an asynchronous receipt.

If an acknowledgement is not expected (i.e., the client is expecting an MDN in the response), then invoking this method will do nothing. Servers may safely call this method immediately after ParseRequest for both synchronous and asynchronous MDN requests.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
