Hi,
I am using Broker v6.
I wanted to know if it was possible to change the name of a referenced element upon attaching it to another part of a tree.
For example I have the following xml:
<test>
<test1>test1</test1>
<test2>test1</test2>
<test3>test1</test3>
<test4>test1</test4>
</test>
I would declare a reference
DECLARE myRef REFERENCE TO InputRoot.XML.test;
I then detach the reference and want to attach it to another part of XML message but name the root element differently.
<temp>
<test1>test1</test1>
<test2>test1</test2>
<test3>test1</test3>
<test4>test1</test4>
</temp>
Is this possible?
I tried playing with the ATTACH statement but didnt have any success, I could not find anything in documentation that would allow me to do so. Any help would be much appriciated.
Thanx |

Hi,
I suggest (without testing it)
| Code: |
| SET myRef VALUE = 'temp'; |

| Doing that resets the reference and assigns it a new value of temp losing the tree that the reference previously had. |

Really, you need to use XMLNS or XMLNSC.
Also, you don't want to change the VALUE of the element, you want to change the NAME.
