XML data can only be transmitted between client and server if the server supports XML. If there is no support, the server returns an error message. cs_capability is used to test if the server supports XML. A client can convert other possible datatypes to or from the CS_XML datatype.

Note the following syntax rules of XML:

With XML, white space is preserved. Also, with XML, CR/LF is converted to LF.

The Open Client and Open Server does not check or validate CS_XML documents or contents.
