repetition element handling

[Serena Angelucci]

Hello guys, 

I have a question regarding the repetitionSeparator that seems not working in my code.

In the smooks-response-config.xml I defined:

<edi:unparser schemaUri="/edi-mapping-1p-response.dfdl.xsd" unparseOnNode="*" segmentTerminator="'" dataElementSeparator="+" compositeDataElementSeparator=":" escapeCharacter="?" repetitionSeparator="*" />

In the dfdl I defined the field in this way:

<xsd:element dfdl:initiator="CON" name="cont" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentFormat">

<xsd:complexType>

<xsd:sequence dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentSequenceFormat">

<xsd:element name="contactInformation" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="5">

<xsd:complexType>

<xsd:sequence dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDICompositeSequenceFormat">

<xsd:element name="partyQualifier" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>

<xsd:element name="communicationNumber" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>

</xsd:sequence>

</xsd:complexType>

</xsd:element>

</xsd:sequence>

</xsd:complexType>

</xsd:element>

The edifact that is produced is:

CON+14:44 (0)141 611 7100+900:44 (0)141 611 7100

with + as separator, but what I should have is:

CON+14:44 (0)141 611 7100*900:44 (0)141 611 7100

How can I get it?

Is it possible to define a custom writer to achieve that?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Ser4ena

Haven't looked too closely but at first glance I'd say contactInformation should be enclosed within a ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentPartRepeatSequenceFormat sequence:

    <xsd:element dfdl:initiator="CON" name="cont" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentFormat">
        <xsd:complexType>
            <xsd:sequence dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentSequenceFormat">

                <xsd:sequence dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDISegmentPartRepeatSequenceFormat">

                    <xsd:element name="contactInformation" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="5">
                        <xsd:complexType>
                            <xsd:sequence dfdl:ref="ibmEdiFmt:EDICompositeSequenceFormat">
                                <xsd:element name="partyQualifier" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
                                <xsd:element name="communicationNumber" type="xsd:string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"/>
                            </xsd:sequence>
                        </xsd:complexType>
                    </xsd:element>
                </xsd:sequence>
            </xsd:sequence>
        </xsd:complexType>
    </xsd:element>
