Creating an XML with Xmlstreamwriter

Hello, I'm new to apex and salesforce world and I'm trying to create an XML file using Xmlstreamwriter which should look like this :

 

<?XML version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SERVICE version="1.0">
	<CLIENT email="xx.xx@xx.xx">
		<BASIC_FIELDS id="1">
			<ADDRESS_LINE_1 id="2" >24 rue de rocher</ADDRESS_LINE_1>
			<CITY id="3" >Paris</CITY>
                 </BASIC_FIELDS>
        </CLIENT>
</SERVICE>

 

 

but when I try this code :

 

 public String getxmlRes()
        {
        Xmlstreamwriter xmlW = new Xmlstreamwriter();
        xmlW.writeStartDocument('utf-8','1.0');
        xmlW.writeStartElement('SERVICE', 'version', '"1.0"');    
        xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'CLIENT email= xxx@xx.com',null);
        xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'BASIC_FIELDS id="1"',null);
        xmlW.writeAttribute(null, null, 'ADRESS_LINE id="2"', '24 rue de rocher');
        xmlW.writeAttribute(null, null,'CITY id="3"', 'Paris');
        xmlW.writeEndElement();
        xmlW.writeEndElement(); 
        xmlW.writeEndElement();
        xmlW.writeEndDocument();
        String xmlStringxmlRes = xmlW.getXmlString();
        System.debug('The XML :'+xmlW.getXmlString());     
        xmlW.close();
        return xmlStringxmlRes;
}

 

instead I get this :

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SERVICE:version>
<CLIENT email= xxx@xx.com>
<BASIC_FIELDS id="1" ADRESS_LINE id="2"="24 rue de rocher" CITY id="3"="Paris">
</BASIC_FIELDS id="1">
</CLIENT email= xxx@xx.com>
</SERVICE:version>

i hope someone could help me!

thanks

Give this a try:

 

public String getxmlRes() {

	Xmlstreamwriter xmlW = new Xmlstreamwriter();
	xmlW.writeStartDocument('utf-8','1.0');
		xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'SERVICE', null);
			xmlW.writeAttribute(null,null,'version','1.0');
			xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'CLIENT',null);
				xmlW.writeAttribute(null,null,'email','xx.xx@xx.xx');
				xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'BASIC_FIELDS',null);
					xmlW.writeAttribute(null,null,'id','1');

					xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'ADRESS_LINE_1',null);
					xmlW.writeAttribute(null,null,'id','2');
						xmlW.writeCharacters('4 rue de rocher');
					xmlW.writeEndElement(); //Close ADRESS_LINE_1

					xmlW.writeStartElement(null,'CITY',null);
						xmlW.writeAttribute(null,null,'id','3');
						xmlW.writeCharacters('Paris');
					xmlW.writeEndElement(); //Close CITY

				xmlW.writeEndElement(); //Close BASIC_FIELDS
			xmlW.writeEndElement(); //Close CLIENT
		xmlW.writeEndElement(); //Close SERVICE
	xmlW.writeEndDocument(); //Close XML document

	String xmlStringxmlRes = xmlW.getXmlString();
	System.debug('The XML :'+xmlW.getXmlString());     
	xmlW.close();

	return xmlStringxmlRes;
}

Hi,

 

Excuse if I re-up this old topic, but I have to ask:

How do you apply this apex code into a button to create the xml file?
San36San36

Thanks for your example. It worked perfect. 

Do you have any idea on how to post generated xml file to Internal network(specified location)? 

I believe we can implement this using Http post method...but what would be the format for setendpointurl?

 

 

 

Thanks in Advance.............
