ABAP XML Document generation

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am using DOM Api for generating an xml document in Abap.

I am facing problems while generating a CDATA section in my xml file.Can anyone please provide me a sample code for generating a CDATA section using the IF_XML_DOCUMENT interface in ABAP.

Thanks,

Yomesh

HI raja,

The interface is actually IF_IXML.

Created an instance of cl_ixml class.

I have initialized as below

• initialize iXML

type-pools: ixml.

class cl_ixml definition load.

data irc type i.

• create main factory

data: ixmlfactory type ref to if_ixml.

ixmlfactory = cl_ixml=>create( ).

• create stream factory

data: streamfactory type ref to if_ixml_stream_factory.

streamfactory = ixmlfactory->create_stream_factory( ).

Any help appreciated.

thanks,

Yomesh

Have you resolved this problem ? I have a same problem with the CDATA section and I don´t know how to generate it. Could you send me an example code for this.

Thank you in advance,

Hello,

you can append a character data node

to an iXML element, like so:

Given:

DATA: lp_cdata type ref to if_ixml_character_data

lp_element type ref to if_ixml_element,

rc type sy-subrc.

rc = lp_element->append_child( new_child = lp_cdata ).

IF rc <> 0.

raise_xml_exception( ).

ENDIF.
