I have COBOL Copybook that I need to look at a field in to determine my route. For some reason I cannot get it to work. I added a new output terminal. Then went and and added a new route in the Filter table. In the expression builder what is the syntax for this.
I tried this.
$Body/msg_CJ37CI53WPOOPQDATA/CJ37CI53_INPUT_DATA/CJ37CI53_TRANSACTION = 'XW'
And this.
$Root/msg_CJ37CI53WPOOPQDATA/CJ37CI53_INPUT_DATA/CJ37CI53_TRANSACTION = 'XW'
What am i doing wrong? |

$Root would need MRM after it.
In both cases, it's likely the msg_CJ37CI53WPOOPQDATA that's the problem. |

| The msg_CJ37CI53 is the name of the COBOL include/Messageset. So what would the proper syntax be? |

The path should be constructed with the same pieces as an ESQL path that points to the same thing.
This usually does not include the name of the message set. |

Ok, I tried this.
$Root.MRM.CJ37CI53_INPUT_DATA.CJ37CI53_TRANSACTION = 'XW'
and got this error in the ErrorException Text.
XPath: Variable binding does not exist |

Try that path with forward slashes instead of dots.
Or else make it into a real ESQL path by using 'Root' instead of $Root. |

| No luck. When I debug it goes into the Route node and blows up. Tried both Xpath and ESQL. Should I open a PMR? |

Just an update. Even tho WMB thinks its invalid syntax I was able to get it working by using this.
$Root/MRM/CJ37CI53_INPUT_DATA/CJ37CI53_TRANSACTION="XW"
Thanks to those who helped. |

Thanks for the forward slash tip for defining the XP path within the Route node properties. i was pulling my hair out to understand why the dot separator wasnt working! cheers  |
