Quick Start (MTOM): Creating a policy using the web service API

The following C# code example creates a new policy named Allow Copy. The policy set to which the policy is added is named Global Policy Set. This code example exposes a user-defined method named getFileContent that accepts the location of a PDRL XML file and returns a string representation of the XML data located within the file. An example of the PDRL document (SamplePolicy.xml) that this quick start references is shown in the Creating Policies section. (See Creating Policies.)
