I am trying to do an XSL transform on an xml structure in a bpel assignment statement. There is a syntax problem, but I am having trouble finding official documentation. There are examples all over the internet but I have not found a clear explanation. Here is my best shot. What do the last two parameters do? Why is eclipse saying the first argument must be a literal, even though test3.xsl is a string?
<bpel:assign validate="yes" name="Assign">
<bpel:copy keepSrcElementName="no">
<bpel:from>
<![CDATA[bpel:doXslTransform("test3.xsl", $personalInfoServiceOutput.parameters), "middle", $positionSkillManagementInput]]>
</bpel:from>
<bpel:to variable="positionSkillManagementInput"></bpel:to>
</bpel:copy>
</bpel:assign>
The signature of doXSLTransform looks as follows:
object bpel:doXslTransform(string, node-set, (string, object)*)
The first parameter is the name of the XSLT script, the second parameter is an XPath identifying the source document (e.g. a variable, part, nodeset, node). The third and the fourth parameter is a key-value pair, the string is the key and the object is the value. Those pairs are mapped into the script's parameter context so that you can access these values by their name in the script. There can be any number of these pairs.
The best resource to look up such things is the WS-BPEL 2.0 specification, doXSLTransform is described in Sect. 8.4
When I use the following code :
<bpel:copy keepSrcElementName="no">
<bpel:from>
<![CDATA[bpel:doXslTransform("parseSample.xsl", $output.payload)]]>
</bpel:from>
<bpel:to variable="output"></bpel:to>
</bpel:copy>
I also get the error, that first argument must be literal string.
But, when I deploy my service (with error) to wso2 bps, it works fine.
You can try with this.
I faced the same issue. Agree with NGoyal. Shows error in BPEL but works when deployed.

I'm building a route which calls a groovy script whose path is dynamically computed and, if the script can't be found, defaults to a generic, static script:
.doTry()
.toD("language://groovy:resource:classpath:scripts/${exchangeProperty.consumerType}ResponseHandler.groovy")
.doCatch(FileNotFoundException.class)
.script().groovy("resource:classpath:scripts/defaultResponseHandler.groovy")
.end()
The problem is that the exchange property consumerType is not resolved since the uri string parameter of toD is evaluated using groovy and not simple.
MultipleCompilationErrorsException -> startup failed:
Script_09b4150584d9e2c979353feee06897b5.groovy: 1: Unexpected input: 'scripts/${exchangeProperty.consumerType}' # line 1, column 20.
resource:classpath:scripts/${exchangeProperty.consumerType}ResponseHandler.groovy
^
1 error
How can I obtain the desired behavior?
According to the error shown there, it seems Camel is not able to resolve the string you provided in the toD().
By default, the expression you pass to a dynamic to is evaluated as Simple language but, as described in To Dynamic Camel documentation, you can specify other languages for the dynamic evaluation.
In your case, you are trying to evaluate the endpoint with groovy language but then you're using Simple language to substitute a piece of the name of the script.
One solution I've found (yet not the best) would be to specify the language for the interpretation of the string as simple and then use language:groovy to specify the endpoint that will need to be called.
You could write something like this:
.doTry()
.toD("language:simple:language://groovy:resource:classpath:scripts/${exchangeProperty.consumerType}ResponseHandler.groovy")
.doCatch(FileNotFoundException.class)
.script().groovy("resource:classpath:scripts/defaultResponseHandler.groovy")
.end()
It seems to work, but I hope someone else comes up with a better solution.
I'm new to JMeter so this question may sound absolutely dumb...
I have a loop in which a variable (let's say it is called "raw") is being changed and written to file every iteration. The variable contains HTML encoded text so it has to be converted into plain text. I found out this can be done using __unescapeHtml function. When I tried using it worked but I ended up always receiving the same text as on the first iteration. Then I learned that I have to use vars.get instead of ${} to access a variable. So I changed ${__unescapeHtml("${raw}")} to ${__unescapeHtml(vars.get("raw")} which kind of helped: vars.get is getting the new value of raw each iteration but __unescapeHtml didn't work at all now - it just returns the encoded text from raw. I didn't succeded finding anything about this exact problem so I'm kind of stuck.
Ended up using
import org.apache.commons.lang3.StringEscapeUtils
...
StringEscapeUtils.unescapeHtml4(vars.get("raw"))
Don't know if it is a good way to do this but at least it works.
I assume, that you are using the expression ${...} inside a JSR-223 sampler or similar context. The user manual for JSR-223 Sampler states, that those scripts can be cached by JMeter. That is why you only get the values from the first time the context gets created.
The same is true for simple variable evaluations as ${varname}, as for function calls like ${__unescapeHtml(...)}.
The solution here is:
don't use ${...} inside of JSR-223 contexts, that might be cached.
you can however pass those expressions (${...}) into the context by using them as parameters through the input labeled Parameters on the JSR-223 Sampler – again assuming, that you are using it.
you can use the features, that your chosen JSR-223 context gives you, as you have done, by using the StringEscapeUtils#unescapeHtml4
I have started using .net API for yaml and it seems to be helpful. However I have few questions and wondering if you can provide some sample/work around for the same.
(1) I have an object consisting 4 strings I would like to serialize its collection (List or String[]). I wrote a helper method to return me the strings in the format I want, however it adds an extra single quote before and after the string. So I am getting
-'{str1: str2, str3: str4}'
-'{str5: str6, str7: str8}'
instead of
-{str1: str2, str3: str4}
-{str5: str6, str7: str8}
Can you suggest any workarounds?
(2) I am trying to insert xaml as a string in a yaml document. My xaml is well formed xml but when I serialize it, it cuts before 3rd last element. Any idea why?
Regarding the first question, if you are serializing an array of strings, then it is normal that each element is quoted because it starts with a '{'. In this case, you should be serializing the list of objects directly instead of converting them to string first.
Regarding the second question, you should add some code to the question to clarify what you are doing.
I am using a simple looping plugin so that my template looks like this:
{exp:loop_plus start="1" end="4" increment="1"}
<h3>{slide_{index}_title}</h3>
{/exp:loop_plus}
However, I am ending up with the following output:
<h3>{slide_1_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_2_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_3_title}</h3>
<h3>{slide_4_title}</h3>
Is there any way I can have dynamic variable names like this? I am not looking for alternative methods for building a slider, I simply would like to know if the dynamic variable names like this is possible. Thanks!
I'm assuming that Loop Plus (http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/loop-plus) sets the {index} part, so the question is what is defining {slide_1_title}...?
Assuming you have an entry field or variable with this defined, what you have is correct, but if it's not working, it means there's a parsing order issue.
Let's assume the code you supplied is wrapped in a {exp:channel:entries} tag pair, what happens is EE will try to parse the variable first, so will see: {slide_{index}_title} which doesn't exist. The {exp:loop_plus} add-on will then parse it, converting it to {slide_1_title} (but to late as channel:entries has already tried to parse it), which is what is finally output to the template.
So what you want to ensure is that EE parses {exp:loop_plus} before {exp:channel:entries}, do this using parse="inward" tag:
{exp:loop_plus start="1" end="4" increment="1" parse="inward"}
<h3>{slide_{index}_title}</h3>
{/exp:loop_plus}
This is a global EE parameter that EE uses to control parse order - you won't find it documented under the specific add-on. By adding the parameter, it means this child tag will get parsed before it's parent.
One way you could do it is to declare a preload_replace variable in your template and use it in your custom field name.
So something like:
{preload_replace:my_var_prefix="whatever"}
And then in your loop, you could then use:
{slide_{my_var_prefix}_title}
I am a bit confused by what I see and hence headed over to SO.
I am developing a BizTalk (2010) Orchestration and I am wanting to parse an incoming XML message. I just need to retrieve then number of times a particular node is repeating. I could have used XPath. But, I chose to use LinqToXml.
I have created a variable of type System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace and inside an expression shape, I am assignning it a string value.. say http://mycompany/v1.0. This is a perfectly valid C# statment, as there is an implicit conversion from String to XNamespace (MSDN link).
But the Orchestration will not compile at all. I get this error cannot implicitly convert type System.String to System.Xml.Linq.XNamespace.
And if I dont use the XNamespace variable and directly run LinqToXml on the incoming message like this
MessageCount = MyXElement.Elements("{http://mycompany/v1.0}ListOfNotifications").Elements("{http://mycompany/v1.0}Notification").Count();
I get a cannot convert from String to XName error. Even this is confusing.
I am using BizTalk 2010 and C# 4.0. Can someone explain if I am missing something? I have tried all these code snippets using LinqPad and I get the expected response. So, there are no typos or missing references.
I opted to use the XPath option to retrieve the values that I needed, instead of using LinqToXml. The code that I ended up writing looks like below:
xpath(myOrchVariable, "string(/*[local-name()='InputRootNode' and namespace-uri()='http://my/name/space'])")
