ST - tt:write, Write Variables

Other versions: 7.31 | 7.40 | 7.54

Syntax


<tt:write var="variable" [map="..."] 
      
                  [length|minLength="len"] 

                         [xsd-type...] />

Effect

The command tt:write writes the value of a variable or parameter to the target XML data.

variable is used to specify the variable to be written or to specify a parameter. The same applies to the attributes map, length, and minLength and to xsd-type... as to the statement tt:value. The variable must represent an elementary value.

Serialization

The value of the variable (the parameter) is inserted into the XML data at the position of the command (if applicable, after map). Depending on the type of the variable or parameter, a mapping takes place in accordance with the asXML format.

Deserialization

The tt:write command is ignored in deserializations.

Example

Serializes the start value of a variable.

<tt:transform
  xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
  <tt:variable name="VARI" val="333" />
  <tt:template>
    <X>
      <tt:write var="VARI"/>
    </X>
  </tt:template>
</tt:transform>

The result of the serialization is:
