  • 1.  WTX with DataPower : Issue with handling XML attributes

    Hi all,
    Hi all,
    We are trying to run simple mapping created in WTX which sets the attribute and run it in DP.
    Looks like DP is ignoring the attribute setting. If I run the same code on WTX engine, I see the attributes set.
    Here is the example
    in xml element looks like
    <element name="LastName" type="xsd:string" nillable="true"/>
    when we import, it creates attribute called xsi:nil
    if we update that with true or false and send it run on DP, we get back only the element.
    <LastName>TESTMAN</LastName>

    Looks like, WTX engine running in DP ignores xml attributes. Is my assumption is right?

    Please let me know.

    Thanks in advance!!

    You need to post this in DataPower forum. WTX design Studio is only a tool for DP.

    maheshpn,
    I think I had a similar problem, I recall that datapower has some limitations when it comes to xsi:nil, I openned a PMR and the support asked me to open the created output and remove the xsi:nil, and it worked, so I contacted the WTX support and they created a fix for me to use, so that the importer doesn't create the xsi:nil, so acording to them try open the mts file, and search for xsi:nil, remove the xsi, ofcourse u will not be able to try it from type designer, so u need to test it from the dp box
