the xml generated using generated transformers for a copybook showing garbage value.

[LS]

Hi Fady,

                  I generated transformers for a copybook using the following code

Cob2TransGenerator cob2trans = new Cob2TransGenerator( new Cob2TransModel());

       

        Cob2TransResult result = cob2trans.generate(cobolFile, target,classpath);  

Using the generated classes tried to convert a fixlength to xml, below is the code.

      

Path path = Paths.get("C:\\AccountBalanceRequest.txt");

   byte[] hostData = Files.readAllBytes(path);

   StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();

   AccountBalanceRequestXmlTransformers transformers = new AccountBalanceRequestXmlTransformers();

transformers.toXml(hostData, writer);

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

In the xml it is showing some garbage data shown below in red.

Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks Sridhar. Whats is the default value for toXML and  toHost ?

 When you get the bytes from txt file make sure it is UTF-8

and also while transforming use UTF-8 as parameter,

AccountBalanceRequestXmlTransf

ormers transformers = new AccountBalanceRequestXmlTransformers();

transformers.toXml(hostData, writer,"UTF-8");

Can you post the Host data

I mean the default Character Encoding.

Hi Sudhir

I have same problem while transforming into java objects 

 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.

I am getting loan number as junk 

Record [clientNo=384, clientSuffix=1, loanNo= ?° ?? , recCode=P, recNumber=1]

I am using the IBM037 as my encoding 

This is my java code 

[

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();

RecordKeyTransformers recordKeyTransformers = new RecordKeyTransformers();

RecordKey recordKey = (RecordKey)recordKeyTransformers.toJava(data,offset,"IBM037");

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());

}
