Creating XML

Hi Team,

I am not getting XML output in desired format using below code. Could someone suggest in this?

Code:
 DEFINE VARIABLE cRequest AS LONGCHAR     NO-UNDO.
 
 Define temp-table tt-Code no-undo
    Code                  as char
    AccountRangeFrom      as char
    AccountRangeTo        as char
    SubAccountRangeFrom   as char
    SubAccountRangeTo     as char.
 
 TEMP-TABLE tt-Code:WRITE-XML("LONGCHAR",cRequest) NO-ERROR.

XML signature in WSDL:

XML:
 <ns0:CCCode xmlns:ns0="http:/url.com/file.xsd">
  <ns0:Code>string-value</ns0:Code>
  <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>string-value</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:AccountRangeTo>string-value</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>string-value</ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>string-value</ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>
</ns0:CCCode>

Desired XML Output. One code has multiple ranges for account and sub account hence need to be export data in below format:

XML:
 <ns0:CCCode xmlns:ns0="http:/url.com/file.xsd">
  <ns0:Code>string-value</ns0:Code>
  <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-1</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-1</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
  <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-2</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-2</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
  <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-3</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-3</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>Frm-Sub-1</ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>To-Sub-1</ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>Frm-Sub-2</ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>
  <ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>To-Sub-2</ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>
</ns0:CCCode>

Thanks

Hi John,

Do you have access to the XSD file?
I've created this one, but it would be interesting how it compairs to the orignal.
Code:
<xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http:/url.com/file.xsd" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <xs:element name="Code" type="xs:string"/>
  <xs:element name="AccountRangeFrom" type="xs:string"/>
  <xs:element name="AccountRangeTo" type="xs:string"/>
  <xs:element name="SubAccountRangeFrom" type="xs:string"/>
  <xs:element name="SubAccountRangeTo" type="xs:string"/>
  <xs:element name="CCCode">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded" minOccurs="0">
        <xs:element ref="file:Code" xmlns:file="http:/url.com/file.xsd"/>
        <xs:element ref="file:AccountRangeFrom" xmlns:file="http:/url.com/file.xsd"/>
        <xs:element ref="file:AccountRangeTo" xmlns:file="http:/url.com/file.xsd"/>
        <xs:element ref="file:SubAccountRangeFrom" xmlns:file="http:/url.com/file.xsd"/>
        <xs:element ref="file:SubAccountRangeTo" xmlns:file="http:/url.com/file.xsd"/>
      </xs:choice>
    </xs:complexType>
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

Without using the SAX-WRITER, or X-DOCUMENT, I don't think it's possible to use the WRITE-XML() method.

This is a better XML design, but it guess it wont help wou.
Code:
<ns0:CCCode xmlns:ns0="http:/url.com/file.xsd">
  <ns0:Code>string-value</ns0:Code>
    <ns0:AccountRanges>
        <ns0:AccountRange>
            <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-1</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
            <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-1</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
        </ns0:AccountRange>
        <ns0:AccountRange>
            <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-2</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
            <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-2</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
        </ns0:AccountRange>
        <ns0:AccountRange>
            <ns0:AccountRangeFrom>Frm-3</ns0:AccountRangeFrom>
            <ns0:AccountRangeTo>To-3</ns0:AccountRangeTo>
        </ns0:AccountRange>
    </ns0:AccountRanges> 
    <ns0:SubAccountRanges>
        <ns0:SubAccountRange>
            <ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>Frm-Sub-1</ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>
            <ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>To-Sub-1</ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>
        </ns0:SubAccountRange>
        <ns0:SubAccountRange>
            <ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>Frm-Sub-2</ns0:SubAccountRangeFrom>
            <ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>To-Sub-2</ns0:SubAccountRangeTo>
        </ns0:SubAccountRange>
    </ns0:SubAccountRanges>     
</ns0:CCCode>


This is a refinement of your existing code.
Code:
DEFINE TEMP-TABLE CCCode NO-UNDO
    NAMESPACE-URI "http:/url.com/file.xsd"
    FIELD Code AS CHARACTER
    FIELD AccountRangeFrom AS CHARACTER
    FIELD AccountRangeTo AS CHARACTER
    FIELD SubAccountRangeFrom AS CHARACTER
    FIELD SubAccountRangeTo AS CHARACTER .

DEFINE DATASET CCCodeDset NAMESPACE-URI "http:/url.com/file.xsd"
    XML-NODE-TYPE "HIDDEN"
    FOR CCCode.

DEFINE VARIABLE lcXMLContent AS LONGCHAR NO-UNDO. 
  
  
CREATE CCCode.

ASSIGN
    CCCode.AccountRangeFrom  = "FooBar1"
    CCCode.AccountRangeTo    = "FooBar2"
    CCCode.SubAccountRangeFrom = "FooBar3"
    CCCode.SubAccountRangeTo   = "FooBar4".
  
DATASET CCCodeDset:WRITE-XML("LONGCHAR", lcXMLContent, TRUE).

MESSAGE STRING(lcXMLContent)
    VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX INFO.
