Subject: transforming xml to tables From: "Pedro Castro" <pfc@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 14 Jun 2004 17:41:01 +0100 |
Hi, all. I'm a beginner in this xsl world and I'm trying to learn. I could do the work I have to do in a different way but I'm trying to see the advantages of xsl (which are convincing me). But I was stopped in the process because of a problem which I (try to) describe next: I have the following xml: <aaa name="t1"> <bbb name="t1_ID" type="n"/> <bbb name="c1" type="t2"/> <bbb name="c2"/> <bbb name="c3" type="n"/> </aaa> And I want to transform this (part) into a script for create a relational table structure (for later processing): (A table has always an id that is conventioned to be the table name followed by "_ID" word) <table name="t1"> <column name="t1_ID" primaryKey="true"/> <column name="c1"/> <column name="c2"/> <column name="c3"/> </table> <table name="t1_t2_nxn"> <column name="t1_ID" primaryKey="true"/> <column name="t2_ID" primaryKey="true"/> <foreign-key foreignTable="t1"> <reference local="t1_ID" foreign="t1_ID"/> </foreign-key> <foreign-key foreignTable="t2"> <reference local="t2_ID" foreign="t2_ID"/> </foreign-key> </table> The rules for transformation are simple: if an inner element for the <aaa> element has a type other than none or "n" (like the type="t2" case) than i need to create the second table which is an n x n table between t1 and (an already existent) t2 table. Is this possible to do in xsl? I'm sorry for the long question, and I hope that anybody can understand and help :) Thanks in advance!! Pedro Castro. Portugal.
