## Procedures

- `SaveToFile(FilePath: Text; var XMLBuffer: Record "XML Buffer")`
- `SaveToTempBlob(var TempBlob: Codeunit "Temp Blob"; var XMLBuffer: Record "XML Buffer")`
- `SaveToTempBlobWithEncoding(var TempBlob: Codeunit "Temp Blob"; var XMLBuffer: Record "XML Buffer"; Encoding: Text)`
- `SaveAttributes(var TempParentElementXMLBuffer: Record "XML Buffer" temporary; XMLCurrElement: DotNet XmlNode; XmlDocument: DotNet XmlDocument)`
- `SaveProcessingInstructions(var TempParentElementXMLBuffer: Record "XML Buffer" temporary; XMLCurrElement: DotNet XmlNode; XmlDocument: DotNet XmlDocument)`

Plus 1 local procedures.

## Triggers

OnRun

## Calls

From the extracted call graph of BC29 (graphify-al on the snapshot checkout): calls whose target is known from a declared type or an `Object::"Name"` argument. Interface dispatch and calls through events are not counted, so the list is not complete.

- [Codeunit 4100 "Temp Blob"](../codeunit/4100.md) (1 call: `SaveToTempBlobWithEncoding → CreateOutStream`)
- [Codeunit 419 "File Management"](../codeunit/419.md) (1 call: `SaveToFile → BLOBExportToServerFile`)
- [Codeunit 6224 "XML DOM Management"](../codeunit/6224.md) (1 call: `SaveToTempBlobWithEncoding → LoadXMLDocumentFromText`)

## Called by

- [Table 1235 "XML Buffer"](../table/1235.md) (1 call: `Save → SaveToFile`)

## Across versions

- Present in: BC23-30
- Changed (declaration) in: none

Source: AL metadata extracted from the code (names, ids, signatures, properties); no code bodies (D10).

## Ask your agent

Procedure bodies are not stored here (D10). The call sections above are our own, per object, from the BC29 call graph. For a procedure body or the calls of one procedure, ask bc-code-atlas (external, by Stefan Maron, MIT; default corpus w1-28), which the bc-observatory plugin connects: `bcatlas_resolve_node(object_type: "codeunit", object_name: "XML Buffer Reader")`, then `bcatlas_get_procedure_body` or `bcatlas_get_neighbors` on the returned id.
