Problem with XML data source [message #158175]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the XML data source in the latest 2.1 milestone. I have
successfully mapped most of my XML element. But I have problems with the
following snippet:

?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ComparisonReport>
<ComparisonResult>
<ChangedFiles>
<File path="d:\bal\BG100.bal">BG100.bal</File>
<File path="d:\bal\BG105.bal">BG105.bal</File>
<File path="d:\bal\BG100.bal">BG100.bal</File>
<File path="d:\bal\BG105.bal">BG105.bal</File>
</ChangedFiles>
</ComparisonResult>
</ComparisonReport>

I use /ComparisonReport/ComparisonResult/ChangedFiles as the table mapping
and /File as column mapping. But I only get the first File element as
output in the table preview (in the column mapping dialog) and in the
report preview.

I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. Please help me.

Best Regards

Henrik

Your table mapping is off. Use
"/ComparisonReport/ComparisonResult/ChangedFiles/File" to define table
mapping. Then use "/" to define a "File" column if you want the text value
of the <File> node ( "BG100.bal", "BG105.bal", etc.). Or "/@path" if you
want the file paths.
