PLMXML to generic xml

Dec 3rd, 2008

Hi I am new to xslt and i was trying to generate a generic xml from the plmxml.

Following is the plmxml.xml file

 Help with Code Tags 
 XML, XSLT and XPATH Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 
<PLMXML xmlns="http://www.plmxml.org/Schemas/PLMXMLSchema" schemaVersion="6" date="2008-12-02" time="15:33:22" author="Teamcenter V2007.1.3.20080417.00 - PLM@TCLICSRV(498908465)">
<Product id="id2" name="Test" accessRefs="#id3" subType="Item" productId="000019"></Product>
</PLMXML>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<PLMXML xmlns="http://www.plmxml.org/Schemas/PLMXMLSchema" schemaVersion="6" date="2008-12-02" time="15:33:22" author="Teamcenter V2007.1.3.20080417.00 - PLM@TCLICSRV(498908465)">
<Product id="id2" name="Test" accessRefs="#id3" subType="Item" productId="000019"></Product>
</PLMXML>

-------------------------------------------------------
And in the output i want <GXML> instead of <PLMXML>
and <Item> instead of <Product>
i.e my output xml should look like
<GXML>
<Item>
</Item>
</GXML>
-------------------------------------------------------

and following is my xslt but all i get is an empty file

Hi,

I am having 1 solution for you pls check if that work for you.

Rewriting ur xml as below

Help with Code Tags

(Toggle Plain Text)

<PLMXML date="2008-12-02" time="15:33:22" author="Teamcenter V2007.1.3.20080417.00 - PLM@TCLICSRV(498908465)">
<Product id="id2" name="Test" accessRefs="#id3" subType="Item" productId="000019">TEST</Product>
</PLMXML>

Rewriting your xslt as below;

Help with Code Tags

(Toggle Plain Text)

<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">


<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" encoding="UTF-8"/>
<xsl:strip-space elements="*" />


<xsl:template match="/">
	<xsl:apply-templates />
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="//PLMXML">
<GXML>
	<xsl:apply-templates />
</GXML>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="Product">
<Item>
 <xsl:apply-templates />
</Item>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

Output I get as below;

(Toggle Plain Text)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GXML>
<Item>TEST</Item>
</GXML>

*********
In above example if you want to display the values of <Product> element as text you can use <xsl:value-of select="@" />. Please check
*********

I think your assumption for namespace is correct but that can be changed in xml as well as xslt.

If you will see in the Product Template I am not able to get the value of the attribute "id"

Hi,

After some modifications you can get the attribute value....

only modified code is as below....

Help with Code Tags

(Toggle Plain Text)

  <xsl:template name="PLMXML">
    <xsl:element name="GXML">
      <xsl:if test="/plm:PLMXML/plm:Product">
		  <xsl:for-each select="plm:PLMXML/plm:Product"> <!-- to check all the child nodes otherwise you can see only 1 and very first node -->
        <xsl:call-template name="Product">
			<xsl:with-param name="ids" select="./@id"/> <!-- If you want to check 1 and no other nodes you can remove for-each and rewrite as <xsl:with-param name="ids" select="plm:PLMXML/plm:Product/@id"/> -->
        </xsl:call-template>
		</xsl:for-each>
      </xsl:if>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>
  
  <!--Start Of the Product Template-->
  <xsl:template name="Product">
    <xsl:param name="ids" />
    <xsl:element name="Item">
      <xsl:attribute name="id">
        <xsl:value-of select="$ids"/>
      </xsl:attribute>

      <xsl:for-each select="/plm:PLMXML/plm:ProductRevision">
        <xsl:call-template name="ProductRevision"/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </xsl:element>
  </xsl:template>

************
Output for for-each as below...

<GXML>
<Item id="id2"/>
<Item id="id3"/>
</GXML>
************
output without for-each as below
<GXML>
<Item id="id2"/>
</GXML>
************

If that works please mark this thread as solved.

Cheers,
Mahesh
