Hello, Have you thought of using xslt to parse the results for you? If you are using something like Tomcat, you can write a custom tag to merge the xml results with a xslt stylsheet to have the results parsed for you. You can also look into using JSLT to handle the parsing of the xml document via xslt.
Hope this helps, Dan Brown -----Original Message----- From: Brian Lundell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 12:00 PM To: JMeter Users List Subject: ideas on extending jmeter Hi! I'm looking for ideas on how to do something that right now, I believe I have to extend JMeter to do. After sending an XML request, I need to parse thousands of fields from the XML returned by the server. I believe that because of the numbers it is unreasonable to use regular expressions to get these values...especially since the number of fields will change. I believe it would be ideal if I could write a function or even a sampler to do this. The reason I'm thinking a sampler would be better is because there are no functions that currently send requests (that I've seen). I'm thinking either way would be possible, but I guess I'm looking for an answer of how I should do this that is in line with how JMeter is intended to be used. If there is another way of doing this that I haven't considered, I'd love to hear it! Thanks for the help!
