Writing Custom Strings into eDirectory
Problem
A Forum reader recently asked:
"I'm looking to modify an existing stylesheet that writes a custom string attribute into eDirectory. It changes the content of this attrib from a free-form string to an XML string. I want the equivalent of a DirXML script "token-xml-serialize" in XSLT / XPATH.
Basically, I'm looking to reverse this Cool Solution: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tip/15175.html"
And here's the response from Father Ramon ...
Solution
Try this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
xmlns:domwriter="http://www.novell.com/nxsl/java/com.novell.xml.dom.DOMWriter"
xmlns:stringwriter="http://www.novell.com/nxsl/java/java.io.StringWriter"
xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"
exclude-result-prefixes="domwriter stringwriter exsl" >
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:variable name="mynode-set">
<node1 attr1="test" attr2="moretext">
<node1 attr3="text"/>
</node1>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:variable name="stringWriter" select="stringwriter:new()"/>
<xsl:variable name="domWriter"
select="domwriter:new(exsl:node-set($mynode-set), $stringWriter)"/>
<xsl:variable name="temp" select="domwriter:write($domWriter)"/>
<xsl:variable name="serialized"
select="stringwriter:toString($stringWriter)"/>
<xsl:value-of select="$serialized"/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
