When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

All,

For some reason when I persist my instance the XML data is inverted. If anyone can tell me why this is happening and how to correct it I would greatly appreciate it.

The model looks like:

<xforms:model id=”rootModel”>

<xforms:instance id=”my-instance”>

<my-instance-main>

<books>

<book>

</book>

</books>

<house>

</house>

</houses>

</my-instance-main>

</xforms:instance>

</xforms:model>

The data is persisted via:

<xforms:submission id="save-submission-xml" ref="xxforms:instance('my-instance')" resource="/exist/rest/db/orbeon/xforms-sr/addServers-instance.xml" method="put" replace="none">

</xforms:submission>

I don’t understand why the <houses> element is coming before the <books> element.

<my-instance-main>

<house>

</house>

</houses>

<books>

<book>

</book>

</books>

</my-instance-main>

Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

Not sure if/why it would make any difference, but is there a reason you're using ref="xxforms:instance('my-instance')" instead of ref="instance('my-instance')" and the resource attribute instead of action?

RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

Ethan,

I'm using the xxforms:instance because I've got multiple models and multiple instances in those models. xxforms:instance is supposed to find the instance regardless of the model. That said, in the example I've posted here instance('my-instance') works as well. I used the resource attribute because that is what's used in the tutorial example. I've tried using the action attribute instead but it persists the data inverted as well (no change).

Martin,

I don't see any reason why this would happen. I recommend you enable the XForms inspector, and check that the order is correct just before the submission happens. If it is, the use a tool like tcpmon to see what goes over HTTP, to check that the order is indeed changed. If you can confirm this, then could you create an XForms sandbox test case that shows this behavior?

RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

I found the cause of the problem which as it turns out has nothing to do with the xforms:submission. I was putting the instance together dynamically at xforms-ready time. The order that happens in my xform is bottom up not top down as I had assumed. I switched the order and changed the event to xforms-model-construct-done (had to change the event because I dynamically add templates to templates and it has to happen in a certain specific order) and things seem to be working.

Thanks.

RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

In reply to this post by Alessandro Vernet

Alex,

Is there a way to insert an element into a instance as the last element
in the instance (in document order) instead of the first? I tried:

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addServer"
nodeset="contacts-list"
origin="xxforms:instance('addServer-contacts-list-instance')"
at="last()" position="after" />
</xforms:action>

But this adds the addDatabase-contacts-list-instance elements before the
initial <serverOperatingSystem> element in the addServer element.

<addServer sectionLabel="Add Server Header">
<contacts-list>
<contacts>
<contactName/>
<phoneNumber/>
<emailAddress/>
<totalCost/>
</contacts>
</contacts-list>
<serverOperatingSystem>windows</serverOperatingSystem>
</addServer>

Thanks.

Martin

Re: RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

Martin,

try nodeset="contacts-list/child::node()[last()]". I think that ought to insert an instance after the last <contacts> in the <contact-list>.

RE: Re: RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

Ethan,

I tried

<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addServer/child::node()
[last()]" nodeset="contacts-list"
origin="xxforms:instance('addServer-contacts-list-instance')"/>

because I want to add the contacts-list after the
<serverOperatingSystem> element but this failed to add anything.

For grins, I also tried:
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addServer"
nodeset="contacts-list/child::node()[last()]"
origin="xxforms:instance('addServer-contacts-list-instance')"/>

but this had no effect.

Thanks.

Martin

Martin,

I think that this how-to will help (linked below), in particular the
paragraph about inserting at the end. But of course, the whole thing
makes a good read! :)

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: When I persist my instance the XML data is inverted

Alex,

I read that how-to. It does not seem apply to what I'm doing which is
adding elements (in an attempt to get them added in a specific order) to
my instance at xforms-model-construct time. I figured out a way to do it
but it seems, at best, kludge to me. I have to add parent elements first
followed by child elements. So parent elements are done via
<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-model-construct-done">. Child elements
are done via <xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">. Elements that need
to come before sibling elements have to have their xforms:actions come
after their sibling elements actions in the xform document.

Below is an example of my solution. If there is a better way please let
me know. The persisted instances needs to be in the following order and
the xforms:action(s) are they only way I've come up with so far to do
it.

<root>
<addServer>
<addServer-fields/>
</addServer>
<addFilesystem>
<addFilesystem-fields>
<<contacts-list/>
</addFilesystem>
<addDatabase>
<addDatabase-fields/>
<contacts-list/>
</addDatabase>
</root>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-model-construct-done">
<xforms:insert context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')"
nodeset="addDatabase"
origin="xxforms:instance('addDatabase-instance')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-model-construct-done">
<xforms:insert context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')"
nodeset="addFilesystem"
origin="xxforms:instance('addFilesystem-instance')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-model-construct-done">
<xforms:insert context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')"
nodeset="addServer" origin="xxforms:instance('addServer-instance')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addDatabase"
nodeset="contacts-list"
origin="xxforms:instance('addDatabase-contacts-list-instance')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addDatabase"
nodeset="addDatabase-fields"
origin="xxforms:instance('addDatabase-field-template')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addFilesystem"
nodeset="contacts-list"
origin="xxforms:instance('addFilesystem-contacts-list-instance')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addFilesystem"
nodeset="addFilesystem-fields"
origin="xxforms:instance('addFilesystem-field-template')"/>
</xforms:action>

<xforms:action ev:event="xforms-ready">
<xforms:insert
context="xxforms:instance('addServers-instance')/addServer"
nodeset="addServer-fields"
origin="xxforms:instance('addServer-field-template')"/>
</xforms:action>

Thanks.

Martin,

I think that this how-to will help (linked below), in particular the
paragraph about inserting at the end. But of course, the whole thing
makes a good read! :)

Administrator

Martin,

I see syntax errors in this XML, most likely typos. Could you submit a
minimal example that runs in the XForms sandbox and that shows this?
