Error in Current Date in XSLT Mapping

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am having a problem in Dispaying the current Date and Time ( or System Date and Time ) .As per my Project Requirements I need do XSLT mapping

My XSLT Mapping Looks like

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:a="http://XYZ.eu.ABC.com">

<xsl:template match="/">

<a:A2A>

<a:PNo>

<xsl:value-of select="Path/Path/PNO"/>

</a:PNo>

<a:Rev>

<xsl:value-of select="Path/Path/REVISION"/>

</a:Rev>

<a:Current Date>

<xsl:value-of select= ""/>

</a:Current Date>

<a:Current Time>

<xsl:value-of select= ""/>

</a:Current Time>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Can any one please let me is there is any function to dispaly the Current Date and time.

There is a standard date/time function available to use for date and time. Ideally, you should use the standard functions, if you have one.

For XSLT :

<xsl:stylesheet

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

version="2.0">

<xsl:output method="xml"

indent="yes"

omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/aaa">

<xxx>

<xsl:value-of select="current-dateTime()"/>

</xxx>

<yyy>

<xsl:value-of select="current-date()"/>

</yyy>

<zzz>

<xsl:value-of select="current-time()"/>

</zzz>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Hi Pooja,

Above Functions will work in Version 2.0, But not in Version 1.0

Check :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

xmlns:datetime="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times"

exclude-result-prefixes="datetime">

<xsl:template match="/">

<currtime>

<xsl:value-of select="datetime:dateTime()" />

</currtime>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Have you actually tested it?

I have successfully used several XSLT 2.0 functions within XI.

Even though it is only XSLT 1.0 compliant, it already implements several functions of the 2.0 spec (it just doesn't implement everything 2.0 states, so it's not fully 2.0 compliant).

Henrique.

Hi ..

I just tried executing both the maps.. Both of them excutes well in both XMLSpy and Stylus Studio .. But having below problems in Executing in PI

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="2.0">

<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="/aaa">

<xxx>

<xsl:value-of select="current-dateTime()"/>

</xxx>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Then I got the error

javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.util.NestedException: Function with name 'current-dateTime' not found in context library.

with

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"

xmlns:datetime="http://exslt.org/dates-and-times"

exclude-result-prefixes="datetime">

<xsl:template match="/">

<currtime>

<xsl:value-of select="datetime:dateTime()" />

</currtime>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

I have got

Unable to find resource http://exslt/org/dates-and-times.class (http://NAMESPACE Name) in the following software component versions: 0fe18820-410a-11dd-979b-dc8591374305

Hi All,

Thank you very much for your answers.

I have tried all the options in displaying current date and time in XI ( Using XSLT mapping )... and found one easy way to dispay Current Date and Time using Runtime Functions

Finally XSLT map looks like

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:a="http://XYZ.eu.ABC.com">

<xsl:param name="TimeSent" />

<xsl:template match="/">

<a:A2A>

<a:PNo>

<xsl:value-of select="Path/Path/PNO"/>

</a:PNo>

<a:Rev>

<xsl:value-of select="Path/Path/REVISION"/>

</a:Rev>

<a:Current DateTime>

<xsl:value-of select= "$TimeSent"/>

</a:Current DateTime>

</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
