call-process

[najja]

Hi there,

I want the use curl to send my post to blogger data api. The following
command works perfectly in the command line of my windows box:

curl -v --header "string in e-blog-auth" -d "@d:\.myemacs\e-blog-tmp"
https://www.blogger.com/feeds/blogid/posts/default

However, when I translate it into the following call-process, it
returns a error message called "Content is not allowed in prolog".

(call-process "curl" nil e-blog-buffer nil
		  "-v" "--header"
		  e-blog-auth
		  "--header" "Content-Type: application/atom+xml"
		  "-d" "\"@d:\\.myemacs\\e-blog-tmp\""
                  "https://www.blogger.com/feeds/blogid/posts/default
\")

Is there anything wrong with the function?

May be it will work with apply, try that:

,----
| (apply call-process "curl" nil e-blog-buffer nil
|        '("-v"
|          "--header"
|          e-blog-auth
|          "--header"
|          "Content-Type: application/atom+xml"
|          "-d"
|          "\"@d:\\.myemacs\\e-blog-tmp\""
|          "https://www.blogger.com/feeds/blogid/posts/default"))

I'm confused by the newline and the backslash in your string, but other
than that everything is alright.

Note that you are /not/ using the same parameters in both your
calls, though.  If you add --header "Content-Type: application/atom+xml", the
command line command will fail with the same error.
