Currently, I am working on a project that will send tagged delimited messages that require reformatting to XML. For example, a sample input message may look something like this:

Header1:~Detail1:Data~Detail2:Data~<CR><LF>
Header2:~Detail1:Data~Detail2:Data~<CR><LF>

The output XML should resemble something like this:

<Header1>
<Detail1>Data</Detail1>
<Detail2>Data</Detail2>
</Header1>

<Header2>
<Detail1>Data</Detail1>
<Detail2>Data</Detail2>
</Header1>

I assume that I will have to set the Compound Types up for repeating elements. My question is how will build the message that consist of the Header section and the Detail section. In addition, is it better to build the XML in the Compute node of the flow, or to add an XML layer to the message set?

Any help with this will be appriciated!
