Hi
I have a message with the following structure:
<mainTag>
<secondLevel>
<newMsg>
<one></one>
<two></two>
</newMsg>
</secondLevel>
</mainTag>
Now, what I want to do is set the contents of <secondLevel> to be empty, ie have the following structure:
<mainTag>
<secondLevel></secondLevel>
</mainTag>
If I say SET OutputRoot.XML.mainTag.secondLevel = '';
then it does not appear to work properly. I set it to be 'TEST' and this was appended to the end of the <secondLevel> tag.
Is there any easy way to delete the contents of a tag which contains further tags?
Thanks
Mark

In a compute node, I think if you set the SecondLevel entry to NULL and then set it again after that to '' you will acheive what you are after.
e.g.
SET OutputRoot.XML.MainTag.SecondLevel = NULL;
SET OutputRoot.XML.MainTag.SecondLevel = '';

Hi
I had tried that one, but it appears you cannot delete all the sub-children easily. What I did was:
DECLARE I INTEGER;
SET I = 1;
WHILE I <= CARDINALITY(OutputRoot.XML.Main.SecondLevel.*[]) DO
SET OutputRoot.XML.Main.SecondLevel.*[1] = NULL;
END WHILE;
This seems to work quite well.
Thanks
