RE: [U2] XML Escape function

[Womack, Adrian]

Here's the code I use (similar to everyone else's) - but I've catalogued
it globally as a user conversion subroutine - this allows it to be used
with ICONV & OCONV:

Eg. CONV.XML = OCONV(ORIG.XML,"U2XML")

Note: I've included conversion for three mark characters, just in case
they manage to sneak through!

To catalog the routine - use this: "CATALOG BP $2XML U2XML"

  FUNCTION U2XML(STATUS.CODE, DATA.FIELD, INTERNAL)
*

*
*
* Arguments:
*
*  STATUS.CODE (I/O) Input : The conversion code
*Output: The value to return to set STATUS()
*  DATA.FIELD  (I)   The data to be converted
*  INTERNAL(I)   @TRUE = ICONV; @FALSE = OCONV
*
*  returns : The converted DATA.FIELD
*

*
*
  STATUS.CODE = 0
*
  IF INTERNAL
  THEN
 RESULT = CHANGE(DATA.FIELD, "&", "&")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "<", "<")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, ">", ">")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "'", "'")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, '"', """)
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, @VM, "ý")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, @FM, "þ")
 RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, @SM, "ü")
  END
  ELSE
 IF INDEX(DATA.FIELD,"&",1)
 THEN
RESULT = CHANGE(DATA.FIELD, "&", "&")
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "<", "<")
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, ">", ">")
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "'", "'")
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, """, '"')
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "ý", @VM)
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "þ", @FM)
RESULT = CHANGE(RESULT, "ü", @SM)
 END
 ELSE
RESULT = DATA.FIELD
 END
  END
*
  RETURN (RESULT)
*

*
*
   END

Subject: [U2] XML Escape function

Years ago, I thought I saw an XML escape function in Unibasic but I
can't seem to find it now.  I thought it was mentioned in the Unidata
Extensions PDF but I'm not able to find it.

Does anyone know if such a function exists?

Thanks,

RE: [U2] [UV] HP, Cron, Como, Execute, Capturing . Not

[Ken Wallis]

tee is a pretty standard UNIX tool.  I cannot think of a variant which
doesn't support it as standard.  At worst you'd have to find an open source
version and compile it, but it is one of the simplest programs - I doubt it
calls anything remotely non-standard.

Have you changed the code yet to avoid problem? You haven't mentioned
version of UV --> if not current, check later GTARs to see if issue
identified/resolved.

Get the customer going with a redirection/read ... obviously (?) new
code, but an

ls -l > /tmp/unique_filename


if you want the COMO to get it as well, try

ls -l | tee /tmp/unique_filename


will work across ANY *nix platform --> assume cron is running as same
user/permissions as when you fire from TCL


I'm not sure whether tee is available across all nix platforms, though.

Ken wins!
Running cron as a non-root user (probably a good idea anyway)
causes this environment to work properly.

Your prize is a free permanent end-user license for NebulaXLite
for any supported platform.  Developer licenses are free anyway
so for anyone else who contributed to this thread to this point,
I'll offer one permanent license at 50% off.  Given the economy,
maybe that's a new way for us to show our gratitude in these
forums?  :)

Thanks to all.

I Use the following (it's not intrinsic):

  DATAITEM=CHANGE(DATAITEM,"&","&")
  DATAITEM=CHANGE(DATAITEM,"<","<")
  DATAITEM=CHANGE(DATAITEM,">",">")
  DATAITEM=CHANGE(DATAITEM,"'","'")

RE: [U2] XML Escape function

[Henry Unger]

I don't know if there is one, but, for text nodes in XML documents, you
could do:

value = change( value, '&',   '&' )
value = change( value, '<',   '<'  )
value = change( value, '>',   '>'  )
value = change( value, '#xD', '
' )

according to RFC 3076:

"Text Nodes - the string value, except all ampersands are replaced by &,
all open angle brackets (<) are replaced by <, all closing angle brackets
(>) are replaced by >, and all #xD characters are replaced by 
."

Other node types, notably attribute nodes, have other requirements that
differ from the above.

Best regards,

Henry
