Mapping question

[Former Member]

Hi there,

Any ideas on how to do the following with graphical mapping?

I have a file to idoc scenario (standard idoc) where each entry in the file needs to generate 2 of the same segments on the idoc.

No problem is mapping the first one, all is working but I can't seem to trigger the creation of the second same segment.

Input

Line 1, aaa

Line 2, bbb

Line 3, ccc

Output should be something like:

<idoc>

<Line>

<Number>1</Number

<Data>aaa</Data>

<Data>some hard coded values</Data>

</Line>

<Line>

<Number>2</Number

<Data>bbb</Data>

<Data>some hard coded values</Data>

</Line>

<Line>

<Number>3</Number

<Data>ccc</Data>

<Data>some hard coded values</Data>

</Line>

</idoc>

Creating the second data element is the problem. Any ideas will be appreciated ...

Regards,

Liesel

You have to duplicate the node for which you want 2 entries....

each of those nodes has to be mapped to the lines in the source so that for every line in source there will be 2 nodes...

How and where do I duplicate the node? Don't have a data type since I am using a standard idoc as my target message.

You would do that in your mapping....In the graphical mapping...right click on the node in question and select the entry "Duplicate Subtree" and this would create a new instance of the same node....at runtime for the same node we are having 2 evaluations....and each of these 2 nodes would be mapped to the lines in the source...

Thanks.
