What is a text message?
A message that is a text representation of the XML document? IIB handles that without any code on your part?
A message in a specific format that does not resemble the XML document?
You can use any of the IIB transformation nodes to achieve this. But you need to build a model of the text message. _________________ chmod -R ugo-wx / |

ASBITSTREAM may help you out if you want to generate a text string representation of an incoming XML structure.
But it's not clear what you're after. _________________ Independent Middleware Consultant

i am trying by using DFDL
1.i have created message model for output text message.
2.then i have mapped input xml elements with output text message model
and now i am testing it but its heavy and it takes time.
i need easier method like esql code which can convert XML to text.
output text file should be like this
010100100C 70117731190550866800000000 201505180591050 24103000020401346644443287 000000000000400000 20150518000000000000000000
L000004 000000000000404660 000000000000000000
fixed length. |

Fair enough. Your output format looks simple, so you expected the format conversion to be a simple task.
But data formats are not simple. DFDL seems 'heavy' because it makes you think about all of the stuff that you might forget if you did the job using ESQL (or Java, or any other custom code). Like padding, left/right justification, number and data formats etc. |

Why are you asking me? I would never use ESQL for this task. DFDL is the correct solution. Data format conversion is not as simple as it looks, and a model-based solution is almost always better than a code-based solution. |

Life takes time and there is never enough hours in the day.
If you think testing this is 'heavy' then think what it would take to test flight critical software.
Stick at it and you will get there and in doing so learn a lot of skils to take you forward.
I don't think I would be alone in saying that testing is more preferable to ... say writing support documentation. _________________ WMQ User since 1999
