Demonstrate the XML FindNextRecord Method

See more XML Examples

Imagine we have an XML file as follows:

<CompleteMultipartUpload>
  <Part>
    <PartNumber>1</PartNumber>
    <ETag>abc</ETag>
  </Part>
  <Part>
    <PartNumber>2</PartNumber>
    <ETag>def</ETag>
  </Part>
  <Part>
    <PartNumber>3</PartNumber>
    <ETag>ghi</ETag>
  </Part>
</CompleteMultipartUpload>

We want to find the record where PartNumber = 2. To do so, we simply position ourselves at the first "Part" tag, and then call FindNextRecord. (See below..) Perl

use chilkat();

$xml = chilkat::CkXml->new();

$xml->LoadXmlFile("qa_data/xml/multipartUpload.xml");

# Position ourselves at the 1st record.
$xml->GetChild2(0);

# foundRec is a Xml
$foundRec = $xml->FindNextRecord("PartNumber","2");
if ($xml->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 1) {
    print "Found the record where PartNumber = 2." . "\r\n";
    print $foundRec->getXml() . "\r\n";

    # Let's examine the ETag for this record...
    print "ETag for PartNumber 2 = " . $foundRec->getChildContent("ETag") . "\r\n";

}
else {
    print "No record exists where PartNumber = 2." . "\r\n";
}

# What if we want to find the record where ETag = "abc"?
# foundRec is a Xml
$foundRec = $xml->FindNextRecord("ETag","abc");
if ($xml->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 1) {
    print "Found the record where ETag = abc" . "\r\n";
    print $foundRec->getXml() . "\r\n";

    # Let's examine the PartNumber for this record...
    print "Part number for Etag(abc) = " . $foundRec->getChildContent("PartNumber") . "\r\n";

}
else {
    print "No record exists where ETag = abc." . "\r\n";
}

# Go back to the XML root..
$xml->GetRoot2();
