Re: [Servingxml-help] Flat file structure validation

[Daniel P. <dan...@sy...>]

Ravi,

This is now supported in version 0.6.6.  Refer to the element reference =
entry for sx:innerGroup, to the last example.

  Daniel,

  sorry for trouble. I am unable to achieve what I wanted to do. I was =
trying this through the weekend.  I am able to achieve only a part of =
expected output. I am sending my resource script, input file, expected =
output and actual output. I hope you will help me fix the resource =
script to get the expected output. I am sending the resource script as =
attachment.=20

  Input - ytds.txt

  E1002FIELD0
  S1002FIELD1FIELD2

  ExpectedOutput:

  <record fileno=3D1001>
      <group1>
              <a>FIELD0</a>=20
               <b>FIELD2</b>
      </group1>
       <group2>
               <c>FIELD1</c>
        </group2>
   </record>

  ActualOutput:

  <record fileno=3D1001>
      <group1>
              <a>FIELD0</a>=20
               <b>FIELD2</b>
      </group1>
   </record>

    Yes, in record mapping sections you can define groupings based on =

      Thanks Daniel. This is helpful.=20
      Another question on the same file structure.

      It looks like serving xml processes one record (using onRecord) at =
a time. Can I have control over 2 record at a time while converting flat =
file to xml.  I want to convert the below flat file as follows. =
Essentially I want to put one field from E record and one field from S =
record into <group1>. So while processing E record, I need information =
from the next record also.=20

      E1001FIELD0
      S1001FIELD1FIELD2
      E1002FIELDA
      S1002FIELDBFIELDC

      TO

      <record fileno=3D1001>
          <group1>
                  <a>FIELD0</a>=20
                   <b>FIELD2</b>
          </group1>
           <group2>
                   <c>FIELD1</c>
            </group2>
       </record>

        Hello Ravi,

        I think you'd have to transform the flat file to XML and express =
the rules in an XML Schema, using the msv:schemaValidator (previously =
msv:msvFilter) to validate the XML.  Alternatively, you could write a =
custom record filter in Java, and buffer enough records until you could =
determine whether they were valid, and discard them or throw an =
exception if you find an error.  But other than that, the tool doesn't =
provide anything special for validating groups of records, as opposed to =
individual records.

        Best regards,
        Daniel

          Hi

          I am trying to use servingxml to validate and transform flat =
files to xml. I am wondering if this toolkit can help validate the flat =
file which looks as follows:

          Every row is a record with position #1 as record type. =
Position #2-5 as filenumber and the rest as misc fields. I want to =
validate that for every filenumber, there exists atleast 1 E record =
followed by 0 or more S records.=20

          E1001FIELD0
          S1001FIELD1FIELD2
          S1001FIELD3FIELD4
          E1002FIELDA
          S1002FIELDBFIELDC

          Thanks
          Ravi
