Hello everyone,
I have a small question:
I was wondering if it was possible to override the dfld sparator by a filed coming from the xml input message?
For example, by default in my dfdl schema I have defined dfdl:separator=";".
But the requisite is that the separator will come from an input field in an xml message. Which means that it can changes per message.
Basically it will be something like '<' or '|' or even ';' but I cannot be sure 100% what it will be.
Thanks!
Regards, |

Yes - this is possible, but it will take a little bit of invention.
DFDL allows you to set the value of a separator from a previous field in the message. So the very first occurrence of this separator must be modelled as a 1-character fixed-length field. Then the remainder of the message can refer to that value. That means that the first field ( and its 1-character separator field ) must be outside of the sequence group that contains the remainder of the message.
| Code: |
Message
firstField
separatorField length=1 lengthUnits=characters
sequence separator='{../separatorField}' separatorSuppressionPolicy='trailingEmptyStrict'
Field2
Field3
