Is there a way to XML encode a string?

[Alf]

Is there a way to XML encode a string? What we want to do is build up an XML string in a field, e.g.

Code: Select all

set REQUEST = '<serviceRequest>';
set REQUEST = REQUEST + '<name>DESCRIPTION</name>';
set REQUEST = REQUEST + '<value>' + xmlencode&#40;CONTRACT&#41; + '</value>';
set REQUEST = REQUEST + '</serviceRequest>';

Thanks

Have you had a look at the XML resource and the Copy Adapter?

Thanks Wai, I'll have a look at them. I was looking at creating a custom Java function, but if there's a built-in way to do it I'd prefer that
