How to read entire file content in one XML tag?

Hi,

How can I read entire file content in one XML tag?

What specifications do I need to specify in Sender adapter?

Hi Chirag,

I am reading a flat file for File to Idoc scenario.

Target Idoc is nested which can not be populated with graphical mapping.

see below post for more detail.

[Mapping flat XML to nested IDOC using node functions |;

The problem here is I'm not able to identify when to insert context change for child which is repeating for a repeating parent.

Solution therefore, I think is reading entire flat structure in one node and then use UDF to populated intermediate target with proper nesting.

Thats why I need to read entire XML.

to populate entire source data into one XML tag,

1. Write an adapter module at the source adapter

2. Use a java mapping

i suggest use a java mapping.

Read the file as a file (not using content conversion). The write a simple java mapping. use the whole inputstream, convert it to a string and populate it in between the required node.

Hi Shabarish,

I tried reading the file, it is now into XI but it is failing in mapping.

Data Type I used was

<DT_REC>

~<TRANS>

~~<DATA>

I expected input data to be:

<MT_REC>

<TRANS>

<DATA>

WPB01|as|asd|

WPB02|as|asd|

</DATA>

</TRANS>

</MT_REC>

but it is coming as flat

WPB01|as|asd|

WPB02|as|asd|

I want to write UDF to map it to target. Is it achievable?

regards,

Anirudh.
