rename input xml elements

[former_member183906]

Hi,

I need to map input to output xml in cpi.

The element "value" can come n number of times in input. It should rename input value segments to value1,value2,value3 etc in output xml.

Can you please let me know how can I handle it.

Input XML - <a> <e> <e> <value>12</value> </e> <e> <value>decribe 12</value> </e> </e> </a>

Output XML - <a> <e> <e> <value1>12</value1> </e> <e> <value2>decribe 12</value2> </e> </e> </a>

Regards

Hi Vijay

Here's a quick and dirty XSLT 3.0 stylesheet, that does what you describe:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="3.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

  <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" />
  
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <a>
      <e>
        <xsl:for-each select="//value">
          <e>
            <xsl:element name="{concat(name(), position())}">
              <xsl:value-of select="." />
            </xsl:element>
          </e>
        </xsl:for-each>
      </e>
    </a>
  </xsl:template>
  
 </xsl:stylesheet>

It can be done more elegantly, but I'm in a bit of a hurry 😄

With this input:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a>
    <e>
        <e>
            <value>12</value>
        </e>
        <e>
            <value>decribe 12</value>
        </e>
    </e>
</a>

It produces the following output:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a>
    <e>
        <e>
            <value1>12</value1>
        </e>
        <e>
            <value2>decribe 12</value2>
        </e>
    </e>
</a>
