Hi Richard
>From memory I don't believe it is possible to pass datastreams by value (and
in fact as the CMA service calls are HTTP GET operations, it wouldn't be
ideal to pass through contents as URL parameters).
You should be able to use XSLT to dereference the URL and extract the values
you need using XSLT/XPath string manipulation functions I think.

Subject: [fcrepo-user] CMA Service deployment problem (Fedora 3.4.1)
Hello:
I was wondering if there should be a difference in the output result between
<fmm:DatastreamInputParm parmName="MyDatastream" passBy="URL_REF"
required="true"></fmm:DatastreamInputParm>
and
<fmm:DatastreamInputParm parmName="MyDatastream" passBy="VALUE"
required="true"></fmm:DatastreamInputParm>
as both seem to return the URL of MyDatastream, and there seems no way to
retrieve the content of MyDatastream.
There seems to have been occasional comment on this in mailings over the
past few years, but no clear solution.
I have a managed datastream of mimetype text/plain containing a short string
which is the record number for the marc description of the digital object in
our library catalogue. I could do various things with this record, but only
if I can retrieve the value of the datastream.
Any suggestions please?
Thank you
