Colin,
	#transformed#xpointer(/Document/*) will do the trick, but you may
need to put base.xml through a identity processor to get an XPL input (i.e.
#base), you will have to try it to find out

Subject: [ops-users] aggregate

Hi,

I'm having a few probs using the aggregate function.  I've 
wrapped up some incoming xml and would like to merge it (tag 
for tag) with some base XML needed for my form.

My aggregate function looks like this:
<p:processor name="oxf:identity">
    <p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', 
base.xml, #transformed )"/>
    <p:output name="data" ref="data"/>
</p:processor>

#transformed is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>test</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
</DHeader>
</Document>

and base.xml contains:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>doctype</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
 <sponsorurl></sponsorurl>
 <sponsorlogo></sponsorlogo>
 <bodyhash></bodyhash>
</DHeader>
</Document>

However, the result of the aggregation gives me a new instance 
with one XML file list after the other with the new root:

<OrbeonRoot>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>test</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
</DHeader>
</Document>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>doctype</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
 <sponsorurl></sponsorurl>
 <sponsorlogo></sponsorlogo>
 <bodyhash></bodyhash>
</DHeader>
</Document>
</OrbeonRoot>

Is there a way to just merge the two together?  If so, how?
Or failing that can I set my XForm to use a base XML file to 
use the tags/values which aren't present in any incoming XML file?

Hi Ryan,

Unfortunately that didn't solve the problem.  The aggregate still produces one xml file after the other however the /Document/ tag is missing from the #transformed input.

 <p:processor name="oxf:identity">
     <p:input name="data" href="base.xml"/>

 </p:processor>
 
 <p:processor name="oxf:identity">
     <p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', #existingxml, #transformed#xpointer(/Document/*))"/>
     <p:output name="data" ref="data"/>
 </p:processor>

Tried:
<p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', #existingxml#xpointer(/Document/*), #transformed#xpointer(/Document/*))"/>

too and a few other iterations but no joy.  Did this work for you?

Colin,

    I thought you wanted this to remove the Document elements, putting the child elements underneath the OrbeonRoot? What do you mean by merge? do you want some of the data to take presidence of the other, i.e. replace it

Colin,

    This will definitly need something more than aggregate. XSLT maybe more flexible, but I'm sure xupdate will do it

Hi Ryan,

Unfortunately that didn't solve the problem.  The aggregate still produces one xml file after the other however the /Document/ tag is missing from the #transformed input.

 <p:processor name="oxf:identity">
     <p:input name="data" href="base.xml"/>
     <p:output name="data" id="existingxml"/>
 </p:processor>
 
 <p:processor name="oxf:identity">
     <p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', #existingxml, #transformed#xpointer(/Document/*))"/>
     <p:output name="data" ref="data"/>
 </p:processor>

Tried:
<p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', #existingxml#xpointer(/Document/*), #transformed#xpointer(/Document/*))"/>

too and a few other iterations but no joy.  Did this work for you?

Colin,
	#transformed#xpointer(/Document/*) will do the trick, but you may
need to put base.xml through a identity processor to get an XPL input (i.e.
#base), you will have to try it to find out

Subject: [ops-users] aggregate

Hi,

I'm having a few probs using the aggregate function.  I've 
wrapped up some incoming xml and would like to merge it (tag 
for tag) with some base XML needed for my form.

My aggregate function looks like this:
<p:processor name="oxf:identity">
    <p:input name="data" href="aggregate('OrbeonRoot', 
base.xml, #transformed )"/>
    <p:output name="data" ref="data"/>
</p:processor>

#transformed is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>test</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
</DHeader>
</Document>

and base.xml contains:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>doctype</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
 <sponsorurl></sponsorurl>
 <sponsorlogo></sponsorlogo>
 <bodyhash></bodyhash>
</DHeader>
</Document>

However, the result of the aggregation gives me a new instance 
with one XML file list after the other with the new root:

<OrbeonRoot>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>test</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
</DHeader>
</Document>
<Document>
<DHeader>
 <documenttype>doctype</documenttype>
 <logourl>logo.gif</logourl>
 <weburl>www.something.com</weburl>
 <sponsorurl></sponsorurl>
 <sponsorlogo></sponsorlogo>
 <bodyhash></bodyhash>
</DHeader>
</Document>
</OrbeonRoot>

Is there a way to just merge the two together?  If so, how?
Or failing that can I set my XForm to use a base XML file to 
use the tags/values which aren't present in any incoming XML file?
