Subject: fixed record length file conversion question From: "Albert Tsun" <albert.tsun@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2000 09:29:38 +0800 |
I am new to XSLT. Hopefully, it is the right place for my question. And I hope someone may think of such question before. My existing application should normally take XML interface file and using XSLT to genrate formatted report. However, some of the external parties only provide fixed length record file. So I think I can reuse my existing "XML->Report" function but just to write progam to convert fixed length record file to XML. However, I would like to have a generic program which reads in fixed length record file and a configuration template (hopefully in XML format, which tells the structure of XML going to be generated (levels, tag name, etc) and the data format of the input data file such as position, length of each field). At the moment, I have no actual idea on how to implement it. At first sight, I may need a Parser which reads in data file and configuration file info and serialize it to XML ? Just brainstorm! Would anyone please point me to some directions (e.g. some concepts or some useful websites) ? Or any suitable discussion group may help? Many Thanks in advance XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
