Mapping multiple tags

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am dealing with a mapping challenge. I have my incoming message

<address>

<name1> A</name1> (occurrence is 0:1)

<street1>ABC Street</street1>

<name2>P</name2>

<street2>PQR Street</street2>

.

.

.

<name100>X</name100>

<street100>XYZ Street</street100>

</address>

to be mapped to:

<address>

<name> A</name> (occurrence is 0:unbounded)

<street>ABC Street</street>

<name>P</name>

<street>PQR Street</street>

.

.

.

<name>X</name>

<street>XYZ Street</street>

</address>

Is this possible without duplicating subtrees?

Hi,

I don't get this one

why do you need to duplicate if the sender can only send 0 or 1 ?

you just map one right?

Hi,

The sender has address information across street1, street2, street3u2026.and so on. But the receiver has only name and street but can receive it multiple times. During graphical mapping I will have to duplicate the target subtree to get the different names (1,2..100)and street( 1,2..100) into multiple occurrences of name and street.

Is this the best approach or can java UDF do some magic with incrementing tags?. Please advise.

Hi,

ah now I get it

then duplicating is the only way as UDF cannot take dynamic names of the tags - at least to the best of my knowledge

I knew its not possible but had a hunch if somebody in the forum would have cracked it. Thanks for the response.

hi,

sorry but with different names it's not doable I believe

Hi Smith,

Looking at the message it seems you are getting from MDM. Then you ask those guys to loop properly in their system without dynamic name. If not mdm, even if it is other system you can check with them once again.

Hi Teresa,

You sender is 0..1 and your target is 0..unbounded. So map directly one to one. There should not be any issues. So if you have your source then target segment will be mapped else it will not be mapped. Straight forward.

Also can you put a sample input xml and sample xml output with full example and atleast with three records.
