4.7. Binding Data


  1. Using the Order XML message, look at the full XML-to-Java binding configuration. Here are the Java objects that you must populate from that XML message (the "getters" and "setters" are not shown):
    public class Order {
        private Header header;
        private List<OrderItem> orderItems;
    }
     
    public class Header {
        private Date date;
        private Long customerNumber;
        private String customerName;
        private double total;
    }
     
    public class OrderItem {
        private long productId;
        private Integer quantity;
        private double price;
    }
    
  2. Use this configuration to bind the data from the order XML to the object model:
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <smooks-resource-list xmlns="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks-1.1.xsd" xmlns:jb="http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/javabean-1.4.xsd">
     
    (1)   <jb:bean beanId="order" class="com.acme.Order" createOnElement="order">
    (1.a)     <jb:wiring property="header" beanIdRef="header" />
    (1.b)     <jb:wiring property="orderItems" beanIdRef="orderItems" />
          </jb:bean>
     
    (2)   <jb:bean beanId="header" class="com.acme.Header" createOnElement="order">
    (2.a)     <jb:value property="date" decoder="Date" data="header/date">
                  <jb:decodeParam name="format">EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss z yyyy</jb:decodeParam>
              </jb:value>
    (2.b)     <jb:value property="customerNumber" data="header/customer/@number" />
    (2.c)     <jb:value property="customerName" data="header/customer" />
    (2.d)     <jb:expression property="total" execOnElement="order-item" >
                  += (orderItem.price * orderItem.quantity);
              </jb:expression>
          </jb:bean>
     
    (3)   <jb:bean beanId="orderItems" class="java.util.ArrayList" createOnElement="order">
    (3.a)     <jb:wiring beanType="com.acme.OrderItem" /> <!-- Could also wire using beanIdRef="orderItem" -->
          </jb:bean>
     
    (4)   <jb:bean beanId="orderItem" class="com.acme.OrderItem" createOnElement="order-item">
    (4.a)     <jb:value property="productId" data="order-item/product" />
    (4.b)     <jb:value property="quantity" data="order-item/quantity" />
    (4.c)     <jb:value property="price" data="order-item/price" />
          </jb:bean>
     
    </smooks-resource-list>
