Parse XML string NXG4

[nottilie]

Dear Community members

I am in the process to use NXG more and more (NXG 4) 

Now I had to convert some code where I used the parse XML features from LabVIEW 20xx.

I there any equivalent to parse XML in NXG 4. The code conversion tool was not able to do anything with this sub vi's.

Thank you for any input

This will not help you a lot but, I asked JKI (on their forum) they intend to publish thier XML tools for NXG in 2020. I know... that's a bit vague. Until then, I don't know what to suggest.

Good luck!

I have no confidence this step helps you. We can use following example to read xml fast.

Libxml2: Parsing XML in LabVIEW is too slow... or is it?

The components call dll. NXG 4.0 also can. Can we convert the example to NXG version?

I have already fighted with libxml2 a few years ago. There was a problem with 64bit compatibility.

So I went to use the .NET xDocument solution which worked fine.

Sorry but I don't want to start again with the libxml solution.

Thank you for your suggestion

Hi Gernot,

We have not yet migrated the native XML API but at least adding the flatten/unflatten VIs is on our roadmap. As mentioned above we'll be working with JKI to support their add-on migration for additional functionality over the coming year.

Any news about migrating native XML to NXG now, Deborah? Will it be included in version 5.1 or 6? I think it is quite strange not to have XML support in a common programming tool. We have been using the XML parser in LabVIEW for many years, in fact since the Internet Toolkit was introduced, so lack of support for XML is really a problem for us when we consider switching to NXG. And the proprietary toolkit from JKI is not a replacement.

I advise to read the sticky posts at the top of the forum.  LabVIEW NXG is being discontinued.  The last version will be 5.1, due next year.

Hello,

We have a requirement to parse an XML String to a complex business object.

Scenario : XML String was formed as a result of conversion of my complex business object. After changing values of some variables (to rectify application error), we need to parse this XML String back to the same complex business object.

Could someone provide your inputs on how to get this done using IBM BPM 8.5.x?

There was an issue with 64bit similarity. So I went to utilize the .NET xDocument arrangement which turned out great.
