xml to csv transformation
Hello,

I would like to transform a XML file (SVN export format) to CSV including a splitting of one XML field into several CSV fields.

The XML file has the format:

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

The <msg> field has the following two structures:

Structure 1
item01:CRxxxxx || WPxxxxx || DEFxxxxx (x=0-9)
item02:BRS: YES || NO || N/A
item03:SRS: YES || NO || N/A
item04:DDS: YES || NO || N/A
item05:JUNIT: YES || NO || N/A [JUnit  comment]
item06:REVIEWED: <name>
item07:COMMENT: <comment>
Delimiter: #

Structure 2
item01:MAINTENANCE
item02:REQUESTED: <name>
item03:REVIEWED: <name>
item04:COMMENT: <comment>
Delimiter: #

Now I want to have the for each path entry a record created with the following layout:

path;item01;item02;item03;item04;item05 part 1;"item05 part2";item06

where the leading text in item02-item06 is removed and item05 is splitted in two parts (comment enclosed in [] brackets is second part) e.g.

/trunkv2/lib/obbisoft-out.xsd;DEF10123;YES;N/A;N/A;N/A;"XSD file";johndon
/trunkv2/src/obbisoft/implementation008/businessobject/dc/ObbiPlatformProxy.java;CR00034;NO;YES;YES;YES;;johndon
/trunkv2/src/obbisoft/implementation008/businessobject/xml/ObbiXmlDhlaRoleGenericElt.java;CR00034;NO;YES;YES;YES;;johndon
/trunkv2/src/obbisoft/implementation008/businessobject/dc/ObbiTransportCMProxy.java;WP00005;YES;NO;N/A;N/A;"Drag & Drop functionality";joedoe
/trunkv2/src/obbisoft/implementation008/businessobject/xml/ObbiXmlTransfer.java;WP00005;YES;NO;N/A;N/A;"Drag & Drop functionality";joedoe


Any idea how this can be done?

Any help is welcome

Regards

Michael
