Add field heading in receiver file

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

My requirement is to put the column headings in file for just a recap of what each column represents.

My structure contains only one root node: Records

Please tell me the structure that need to be defined for displaying the field headings.

As per my knowledge, by adding

“Records.addHeaderLine = 1” provides first column by space to the file. If I am correct then how can I display the columns heading.

If not correct please suggest the correct way for approaching the same.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Prathibha,

You are absolutly on right track...you could use the Records.addHeaderLine to add the column header lines.

xml.addHeaderLine=<n>

Specify whether the text file should have a header line with column names. The following values are permitted:

&#9632; 0 – No header line

&#9632; 1 – Header line with column names from the XML document

&#9632; 2 – as for 1, followed by a blank line

&#9632; 3 – Header line is stored as xml.headerLine in the configuration and is applied

&#9632; 4 – as for 3, followed by a blank line

This specification is mandatory.

&#9675; xml.headerLine=<headerLineString>

Specify the header line that is generated in the text file if xml.addHeaderLine has the value 3 or 4. This specification is mandatory.
