Re: RPGLE data structure for XML attribute and value

Peter,

you can catch the data with the XMLREADER in powerEXT Core, it is free and
can be downloaded fro http://powerEXT.com

the code is:

dow xmlReader = 0;
select;
when xmlGetNode = 'height' and xmlGetAttr = 'reference';
myref = xmlGetData;
when xmlGetNode = 'height' and xmlGetAttr = 'refrerenceHeight';
myrefhight = xmlGetData;
when xmlGetNode = 'height' and xmlGetAttr = '';
myheight = xmlGetData;
endsl;
enddo;

I thought about that, but didn't pursue it because it turns out they
don't need that information.

I totally agree about the real solution; unfortunately, they're moving
off the IBM i, so no hope of that happening.

But it's all good to know for future use.

Thanks Jon and Birgitta!

Birgitta's approach will not work until you are at least on V6.

I published the basics of one possible work-around here:

http://www.mcpressonline.com/programming/rpg/rpg-has-sax-appeal.html

I know I published something that was even more directly related to this

but I can't find it. The basic idea is to use XML-INTO to grab the "bulk"
of the data and then use XML-SAX to parse the document this time picking up
the field(s) you had to omit during the XML-INTO parse.

But of course the "real" solution is to move to a supported release

Thanks Birgitta. I didn't see datasubf in the v5r4 manual, and when I
compile I get

*RNF0224 30 021600 Error in %XML options at position 50,
