mapping: split different nodes into several occurence of a single one

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I would like to do the following mapping :

Source message :

<Employee1>

<P0000>

....

</P0000>

<P0001>

...

</P0001>

<Pxxxx>

...

</Pxxxx>

</Employee1>

And get this result in an Idoc :

<E1PITYP>

<P0000>

....

</P0000>

</E1PITYP>

<E1PITYP>

<P0001>

...

</P0001>

</E1PITYP>

<E1PITYP>

<Pxxxx>

....

</Pxxxx>

</E1PITYP>

I have tried to duplicate subtrees in my Idoc definition to map each node Pxxxx with a duplicate of field E1PITYP, but the Idoc definition is so big that I am lacking of java memory.

Do you have any other clue ?

Many thanks,

Best regards,

Guislain

For graphical mapping, there's no clue.

That's the proper way to do it (duplicate subtree in the target node).

With XSLT/Java mapping, maybe you could accomplish it with something more simple.

Something like:

...
<xsl:template match="/Employee">
   <IDOC_ROOT_TAG>
      <xsl:for-each select="child::node()">
         <E1PITYP>
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
         </E1PITYP>
      </xsl:for-each>
   </IDOC_ROOT_TAG>
</xsl:template>
...

Regards,

Henrique.

XSLT or Java mapping are must for such a mapping. If the node name is not same, In graphical mapping you will have to create each node manually in the schema.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for answers and confirming my thoughts, in the meantime I did a workaround with an intermediary mapping and a smaller data type where I create my structure, and then I map the nodes 1 to 1 with my Idocs. Although it is not the best way to do it it is working, but next time I will try the java mapping as suggested !

Thanks,

Best regards,
