Dynamic tags in request XML.

Hi,

I guess this depends on from where will you be reading the data - but it will require some scripting from your side - if you can elaborate a little more I can suggest a way forward to try out..

The input data is in csv format which can have colums as "No. Of rooms","Adult count","Age". refer attachment.


Here "No. Of rooms" specify the no. of <RoomStayCandidate> </RoomStayCandidate> tags.
"Adult count" delimited value specifies the no. of <Age></Age> tags in each room.
"Age" specify the value of "Age" tag in each each room.(Delimiter comma gives value of each room. Again the delimiter @ gives the value of ages in each room)


So, for first room,
<RoomStayCandidates>
<RoomStayCandidate>
<GuestCounts>
<GuestCount count="2" ageQualifyingCode="10"/>
<GuestCount count="2" ageQualifyingCode="8">
<Ages>
<Age>21</Age>
<Age>22</Age>
</Ages>
</GuestCount>
</GuestCounts>
</RoomStayCandidate>

</RoomStayCandidates>

So, for second room,

<RoomStayCandidates>
<RoomStayCandidate>
<GuestCounts>
<GuestCount count="2" ageQualifyingCode="10"/>
<GuestCount count="1" ageQualifyingCode="8">
<Ages>
<Age>25</Age>
</Ages>
</GuestCount>
</GuestCounts>
</RoomStayCandidate>

</RoomStayCandidates>

So, for third room,

<RoomStayCandidates>
<RoomStayCandidate>
<GuestCounts>
<GuestCount count="2" ageQualifyingCode="10"/>
<GuestCount count="3" ageQualifyingCode="8">
<Ages>
<Age>43</Age>
<Age>23</Age>
<Age>31</Age>
</Ages>
</GuestCount>
</GuestCounts>
</RoomStayCandidate>

</RoomStayCandidates>

Hi,

I'm sorry for the delayed response; you will need to resort to some kind of scripting for this, probably a groovy script step that builds and inserts the desired block of XML from the datasource for you.
