Hi 2 all.
My message structure..
<Payroll>
<Employee><eno>2</eno>..... </Employee>
<Employee><eno>2</eno>..... </Employee>
<Employee><eno>2</eno>..... </Employee>
<Employee><eno>2</eno>..... </Employee>
</Payroll>

I want to find number of Employee elements existed in input message...

I got it by following ESQL code :

DECLARE NofEmpTags INTEGER CARDINALITY(OutputRoot.MRM."Employee"[]);

But i am not able to find in "Java Compute Node".

can any one suggest how to find "Number of employee tags existed" in input message.

MbElement root = outMessage.getRootElement();
MbElement emp = root.getLastChild().getFirstChild();

by above two statements we can find emp tag...
But how can we find total number of employee tags existed in input message.

Can any one helps me.....
