Hi Solca,

ULC does not limit the length of the URL string that is passed to
showDocument().

ULC just delegates the call to showDocument() of the client environment i.e.
Applet or JNLP.

In case of JNLP, it delegates to BasicService.showDocument() and in case of
Applet, to AppletContext.showDocument().

Browsers, web servers and proxies may put limits on the length of the URL.
For example Internet Explorer caps URLS at 2083 characters. Apache webserver
will handle 8190 characters. Many proxy servers will throttle URLS at 255
characters.

Thanks and regards,

Janak

Subject: [ULC-developer] showDocument(string) size limitation of the
argument


Hi

we would like to know if it was possible to call
ClientContext.showDocument(string) with string size bigger than the size of
a GET Request.  We tried to call this method with a string that had a size
of more than 2Kb but it seems that the Framework strips the string to 2KB.

Is someone aware of such a limitation? How to get around?  We currently
cannot change the size of our string.

Cheers
