How Large Can XML Data in a Variable be for the XML Source?

We can pass XML to the XML Source in a variable, but I haven't seen anywhere how much data can be passed this way? Is there a limit beyond the limits of system memory?

Also, what data types are valid for the variable? Just String?

Hi John,
did you find any answer to this? I am very curious to know these limitations as well..

Hi John,

I don't see any set size limitations in our code. Are you seeing any weird behavior when using large strings?

Yes, the source variable has to be of type string.

Thanks,

No, no wierd behavior yet. I just needed the information to help me decide which way to implement a certain piece of functionality.

So, I'll just assume I can create 2Gb worth of XML.
