rajat nairSubject: getting the value of an attribute
Author: rajat nair

Hi,
I wanted to get the value of an attribute, for example
<trade:tag1 xmlns:trade="http://www.example.com/default" payloadID="12345678912@blah.com">
I want to get the value of payload id,but whn i try to do a regular mapping i get value and name, which is payloadID="12345678912@blah.com,which is going as a attribute value for the tag i m mapping it to and not as content for the tag.For example

<ID payloadID="12345678912@blah.com">

The way i wanted it to show is as shown below
<ID>12345678912@blah.com<ID>

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Rajat Nair

Hi,
if I drag the attribute to an element in the target schema of an XQuery mapper, I get the value of the attribute as the text of the element, e.g.

<xxx>
{data(/root/test/@number)}
</xxx>

Can you explain how you are creating the link?

Thanks,
Alberto

i m using the mapping utility of xquery.When i do a one on one mapping from xml A to xml B, i get the value and name of the attribute from xml A as a attribute for a element in xml b

tag in xml A
<trade:tag1 xmlns:trade="http://www.example.com/default" payloadID="12345678912@blah.com">

after i do a simple one on one mapping with this tag and a tag " <ID>" in xml B i get <ID payloadID="12345678912@blah.com"> instead of

<ID>12345678912@blah.com<ID>
Thank you for the prompt response.

Regards
Rajat

I guess there is something else going on in your XQuery, as I can't reproduce the behavior you are describing using XQuery mapper.

Maybe you can email us (stylus-field-report@progress.com) or attach the XQuery, source and destination documents you are using?
