DOM GET XML ELEMENT VALUE (elementRef; elementValue{; cDATA})
Parameter | Type | Description | |
elementRef | String | XML element reference | |
elementValue | Variable | Value of the element | |
cDATA | Variable | Contents of the CDATA section |
Description
The DOM GET XML ELEMENT VALUE command returns, in the elementValue parameter, the value of the XML element designated by elementRef. 4D will attempt to convert the value obtained into the same type as that of the variable passed as parameter.
The optional cDATA parameter is used to retrieve the contents of the CDATA section(s) of the elementRef XML element. Like with the elementValue parameter, 4D will attempt to convert the value obtained into the same type as that of the variable passed as parameter.
Example
This method returns the value of the $xml_Element_Ref element:
C_STRING(16;$xml_Element_Ref) C_REAL($value) DOM GET XML ELEMENT VALUE($xml_Element_Ref;$value)
