tHttpClient

How can I use tHttpClient with an XML body that isn't hard coded? 

I can generate the XML in a variable, but how do I get it into the "body" field of the component?

Yes I tried that and the variable doesn't get substituted.

Is there documentation that shows how it's supposed to work?

That worked.  It's confusing with answers like the first comment which doesn't seem to work.

My question about documentation wasn't specific enough.  I'm wondering if there's doc that describes when/how Talend evaluates component's text boxes ( e.g. {.input.name}).  Does this happen in all text boxes or just this tHttpClient component?
