hey,
I have to convert some maps from wmb6.1.0.11 to wmb8.0.0.2
i got a map using "Show Derived Type" - this one create an xml with xsi:type and the derived type i choosed
i wanted to do the same with wmb8, using Cast function, but after the map i get an xml with no xsi:type so it fails on validation ..
in order to fix it i had to add the xsi after the map in esql the namespace .. i don't realy like to do it.. is there anthoer option guys ?
Thanks alot,
Or. |

The v8 GDM should build the output tree based on the message model.
The CAST will only convert the value of the source field into what's needed to fit into the value of the destination field.
It sounds like the destination field has the wrong type, either in the schema or in the map. |

Did you try explicitly adding the xsi:type attribute using the Mapping node? I agree with mqjeff that it should not be necessary, but I'm fairly sure that the workaround can be done using Mapping node facilities.

Have you updated your Toolkit with the interim fix for 8002 that came out in July? There were a few mapper fixes included.
Also, a PMR doesn't hurt; the developers have been responsive to our mapper issues, they just need an explanation of why the way they have it set up might not be in the user's best interest. |

No i didn't .. i checked the fixes list
7. Mapper
APAR IC90814 GDM Editor creates map select transform Where clauses with namespaced elements that can fail in runtime
APAR IC91188 MAP shows no error when cast item is unavailable
APAR IC92156 Null pointer exception when converting msgmap to map
APAR IC92618 The plugin com.ibm.etools.mft.uri.map was not included in the V8002 install image
APAR IC92655 Check optional input present for custom ESQL transform
APAR IC92689 Msgmap converter does not support abstract submap input/output
APAR IC92881 Local environment schema missing elements in ServiceRegistry
APAR IC93539 Unexpected condition on converted customer ESQL transform
APAR IC93651 .msgmap to .map conversion can fail with a ClassCastException
it doesnt seems like the my issue fixed there..
PMR idea is good too, i will try it
and by the time, i will try to use the new interim fix for 8002
If someone has the it, can he/she test the output of casting inherited element in GDM? |

Just to follow this up, this is a known problem, and there is a fix available. Please open a PMR ( if you haven't already done so ) and IBM will supply a fix.
