Hi.

I have a file with several logical XML-files merged together as one input file. The typetree is defined with a 'File-level' as top-level where the DOC-level are repeated unlimited under the top-level.

When I run the mapping I get the error: TYPE X'0002' (Error (-1), "XMLParser: Input XML data is invalid."

How do I fix this? Any suggestions??

Can I turn the XML-validation completely off?? (not only set xerces to 'well formed')??

Hi

If you open the type tree and edit the properties of the DOC element. In the properties there is a field that has the dtd listed that you created the tree from. Make sure the correct path is in there. It defaults to just the filename of the dtd/xsd and for that to work, the dtd/xsd must be in the same directory as the map. Otherwise you will need to put the full path to the dtd/xsd for it to work from its existing location.

You cannot use a Typetree that is defined from an XML metadata flie (XSD / DTD) to read non-XML data.

I recommend you create a simple repeating textblob Typetree with appropriate delimiters defined so as to capture each full XML file into 1 object (such as the closing XML tag).

Once you have this, you can then use the PARSE() function on the output.

I will work on an example.

Thank-you.

See enclosed an example.

Test1.mms contains a simple mapping of Input1.xml to Output1.xml

TestAll.mms is a way of mapping Input.txt (which is a concatenation of Input1.xml, Input2.xml and Input3.xml) into a simple repeating group, which is then split on output using the PARSE() function.

Further output cards can then be defined to read and map the individual XML elements.

Thank-you.
