XPath Property
Provides a way to point to a specific segment in the document.
Syntax
ANSI (Cross Platform) char* GetXPath();
int SetXPath(const char* lpszXPath); Unicode (Windows) LPWSTR GetXPath();
INT SetXPath(LPCWSTR lpszXPath);
@property (nonatomic,readwrite,assign,getter=XPath,setter=setXPath:) NSString* XPath; - (NSString*)XPath; - (void)setXPath:(NSString*)newXPath;
#define PID_X12READER_XPATH 24 IPWORKSX12_EXTERNAL void* IPWORKSX12_CALL IPWorksX12_X12Reader_Get(void *lpObj, int propid, int arridx, int *lpcbVal, int64 *lpllVal); IPWORKSX12_EXTERNAL int IPWORKSX12_CALL IPWorksX12_X12Reader_Set(void *lpObj, int propid, int arridx, const void *val, int cbVal);
Default Value
""
Remarks
The path is a series of one or more segment accessors separated by '/'. The path can be absolute (starting with '/') or relative to the current XPath location.
The following are possible values for an element accessor:
IX | Refers to the Interchange (root) node |
FG | Refers to a Functional Group node |
TX | Refers to a Transaction Set node |
'name' | The first segment or loop of the current container with the given schema name |
name[i] | The i-th segment of the current container with the given schema-name |
[i] | The i-th segment of the current container |
[last()] | The last segment of the current container |
[last()-i] | The segment located at the last location minus i in the current container |
.. | The parent of the current container |
BuildDOM must be set to bdEntireDocument or bdTransaction prior to parsing the document for the XPath functionality to be available.
Example (Setting XPath)
Document root (Interchange) | EDIReaderControl.XPath = "/" |
N1 segment in the first transaction | EDIReaderControl.XPath = "/IX/FG/TX/N1Loop1/N1" |
3-th instance of the N2 segment | EDIReaderControl.XPath = "/IX/FG/TX/N1Loop1/N2[3]" |
