LAPI JAVA XMLExport()

Hi all,

I try to create a XML output with LAPI and the function XMLExport() in JAVA.
public int XMLExport
(
   int        nodeID,      // 145234
   LLValue    options,    // ???
   String     filePath     // c:\temp\out.xml
   )

Parameter:
options a value object of type Assoc, initialized using the Value API, that may contain the following:
scope, attributeInfo, nodeInfo, versionInfo, content, styleSheet, styleSheetType, transform, followAliases

Does anybody have an example in JAVA, how I have to fill the parameter: LLValue options?

Thanks and regards
Christian

I don't have a JAVA sample but you should be able to figure out the assoc contents from this (serialized LAPI request argument):

Options=A<1,?,'CallbackHandlerName'='spsarchiving','Scope'='base','AttributeInfo'=true,'NodeInfo'=true>

here is an old example I found on my laptop. Not sure it still works, but worth checking out

Current LAPI documentation contains the following descriptionoptions a value object of type Assoc, initialized using the Value API, that may contain the following:scope the descendents to export; specify base to export just the node; one, to export direct descendants (one level below the node); and sub, to export all descendants; or a number, specified as a string, to export the indicated number of levels of descendants. The default value is base.attributeInfo TRUE (1) to export the category/attribute information, FALSE (0) otherwise. The default value is FALSE.nodeInfo TRUE (1) to export DAPINode information, FALSE (0) otherwise. To create a node for use with XMLImport, specify TRUE. The default value is FALSE.versionInfo the version to export; specify all to export all versions, current to export the current version, or a number, specified as a string, to export a specific version number.content the format of the exported document content; specify base64, to export the document as a base64 encoded, cdata to export the document as unencoded content in a CDATA Section, or plain to export the document as unencoded content.The cdata and plain values are recognized only if the mimetype is included as an UnencodedMimetype setting in the opentext.ini file. For more information about the UnencodedMimetype setting, see Configurable Settings.schema TRUE (1) to include a <!DOCTYPE> tag that references an external Document Type Definition that defines the XML schema, otherwise FALSE (0). The default value is FALSE.styleSheet the name of the style sheet used to transform, or be included with, the exported XML. The value specified for this string, depends on the value of the transform input parameter. For more information, see Remarks.styleSheetType The mimetype of the stylesheet to use; specify text/xsl for IE5 XSL or text/css for CSStransform TRUE (1) to transform the XML using the style sheet on the server, FALSE (0) otherwise. Specifying TRUE has implications for the styleSheet input parameter. For more information, see Remarks. The default value is FALSE.followAliases When exporting a shortcut (alias), specify TRUE (1) to export the node that the shortcut (alias) refers to and all of the node's children, FALSE (0) otherwise. The default value is FALSE.Attached another Java example (rather old also, afaik it still works) - provided "as is"

The EasyLAPI library has a simplified method for XMLExport that looks something like this:

public void xmlExport(String filename, boolean recursive,

boolean attributeInfo, boolean nodeInfo, String versionInfo,

String content) throws EasyLAPIException {

LLValue options = newAssoc();

String scope = recursive ? "sub" : "base";

options.add("scope", scope);

options.add("attributeInfo", attributeInfo);

options.add("nodeInfo", nodeInfo);

options.add("versionInfo", versionInfo); // "all" or "current"

options.add("content", content);

if (getSession().getDocuments().XMLExport(getDataID(), options, filename) != 0) {

throw new EasyLAPIException(this);

}

This code snippet won't run on its own (it needs the EasyLAPI library), but does provide insight into some of the XMLExport options.

The samples helped me to solve my problem.

Thank's a lot - Now it works!
