Re: Create XML file

Yes you can use CGIDEV2 without web

the big difference between CGIDEV2 and powerEXT Core is the following

1. powerEXT/xmlNode support is inline RPGLE support - no need for
templates, but it can also use templates or a mix between templates and
inline code
2. powerEXT/xmlNode do encode special characters correctly
3. powerEXT/xmlNode generates structured and indented XML files but can
compress them
4. If you receive a compressed XML file (very hard to read) there is a tool
to structure it
5. If you have a sample XML file you have to build the is a tool to
generate RPGLE code
6. powerEXT also comes with a build in XML Reader
7. If you are used to CGIDEV2 you can mix the CGIDEV2 and powerEXT
subprocedures

Can I use CGIDEV2 outside a Web Application?
This program needs to run on demand in the batch or interactive
envrionment, not invoked from a browser.

Thanks,

Hi

Try using the free CGIDEV2 HTML programs from Giovanni Perotti and Mel
Rothman. These work equally well to create XML as HTML. You define a
template with placeholders for formats and variables, and call procedures
to fill those in. Ignore references to the web.

Subject: Create XML file

All,
I have a client that needs to send an XML document to one of their
customers with product data.
They do not want to purchase a package to do this.
The XML will not be sent to a web service, but will be placed in a
directory on the server for processing.

If possible, all of the work to build the document should be done in

RPGLE.

Excluding purchased software, can anyone point me to sample code or links
that explain how to do this?

Thanks,
