Multiple records

[Bernd Stoltefuss]

Hi,

i do not quiet understand how to convert files that contain multiple records of the same type.

Let say i have a copybook like:

 01  ACCOUNT.

           03  NR                 PIC S9(10) USAGE COMP-3.

           03  ID                   PIC S9(10) USAGE COMP-3.

and i have a mainframe file with several records of this type.

When i generate the xsd and call a AccountTransformers.toXml(bytes,writer), where bytes is the whole input file, i will get an Xml only including the first record.

What is the supposed standard way of transforming a file with multiple records to XML? 

Regards,

 Frank

Hello Bernd,

This is a jUnit example for you:

    public void testAccount() throws Exception {
       
        byte[] hostData = HostData.toByteArray("00000001024c00000000256c00000002048c00000000512c");
        int offset = 0;
       
        HostTransformStatus status = new HostTransformStatus();
        AccountXmlTransformers tf = new AccountXmlTransformers();


        StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
        tf.getHostToXml().transform(hostData, offset, writer, status);
        System.out.println(writer.toString());
        offset += status.getHostBytesProcessed();
       
        writer = new StringWriter();
        tf.getHostToXml().transform(hostData, offset, writer, status);
        System.out.println(writer.toString());
        offset += status.getHostBytesProcessed();
       
        assertEquals(8, offset);


    }

Let me know if you need more explanations.

Works like a charm. I was not aware of "getHostBytesProcessed()". Thanks!

Hi Fady 

I have similar problem 

My cb looks like below 

 03   RECORD-KEY.

               05   CLIENT-NO           PIC  X(3).

               05   CLIENT-SUFFIX       PIC  X.

               05   LOAN-NO.

                   07   OUR-NO          PIC  X(6).

                   07   CK-DIG          PIC  X.

               05   REC-CODE            PIC  X.

               05   REC-NUMBER          PIC  999.

and Java code looks like this 

InputStream inputstream = new FileInputStream(path);

byte[] data  = new byte[4000];

int  bytesRead = inputstream.read(data);

System.out.println("bytesRead :: "+bytesRead);

int offset = 0;

while(bytesRead != -1) {

bytesRead = inputstream.read(data);

HostTransformStatus status = new HostTransformStatus();

RecordKeyHostToJavaTransformer recordKeyHostToJavaTransformer = new RecordKeyHostToJavaTransformer();

RecordKey recordKey = (RecordKey)recordKeyHostToJavaTransformer.transform(data,offset,"Cp037");

offset += status.getHostBytesProcessed();

//LoanNo loanNum = (LoanNo) (new LoanNoHostToJavaTransformer().transform(data, "IBM037"));

if(recordKey.getRecCode().equalsIgnoreCase("P")){

System.out.println("data:"+data);

System.out.println(recordKey.toString());

}

But I am not getting loan number transformed to ascii

Record [clientNo=384, clientSuffix=1, loanNo=   ì/", recCode=P, recNumber=1]
