Creating XML Banking document from template - c#

I have this template from a bank that is used to make payments on bank account transfers.
See xml below. I have included the sample data that has to be entered when sending the file to the bank.

The file is quite long as has to be in the format given. The black letters represent the details to be passed to the xml. To test if I understood what data goes where I filled it manually and sent to bank for testing. That is all good now.
I have a SAP addon program that captures details from a form and generates a list. Each payment must follow this structure.
Looking at the below:
<Nm>CART LIMITED</Nm>
<Id>
<OrgId>
<Othr>
<Id>S001234/PJones</Id>
<SchmeNm>
<Cd>CUST</Cd>
</SchmeNm>
</Othr>
</OrgId>
</Id>
Is creating a class with all properties according to the template the best way to create the xml needed.
How do I stagger the
<Id>
<OrgId>
<Othr>
as in the case above?
Also the <CtrlSum>667896.00</CtrlSum> is found in the group header and payment info tags. How do I deal with this?

For what i see, the problem is you have a addon in SAP to specify multiple payments methods, but in the XML template given from the bank you don't the structure for multiple payments, so you need to get this information to know how can you work with it.
when you have this information you can use a better XML template with VS or another tool to generate the correct class to work with the XML

Parsing XML file with C#

I would like to parse an XML file using c#. I am a beginner in that field so I need your help please.
Before I ask my question I checked on the net, and found that there is 2 ways to parse XML, either we should use something called XmlDocument or XmlReader so I want to know what is best to use in my case.
Here is exactly what I want to do : I have an XML, I would like to loop through all nodes and search for a specific string inside the node and subnodes and if I found MYSTRING, I note the name of the node with True, and if not, I note the name of the node with False.
I will show you a part of the XML which is too long to make it more clear.
If you look near the end of the XML there is MYSTRING.
What I want is to loop over all the Jobs in the XML, and check if the job has or not the MYSTRING...Some jobs have it and some others no.
My questions are : what do use ? XML Reader or Document ?
and how to check if inside a node (Job in this example) and the nodes inside it , there is a string called MyString or not.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can Help me.

Unfortunatly No one gave me an exact answer of what I wanted here, but I finally got the solution my self;
I used XmlDocument
I used the option SelectNodes to get my nodes, but the most important was to use sometimes the .//MyNode to get relative nodes, based on current one..If we don't use .// we will get all nodes in the documents not the ones relatives to current nodes.
I used something like that to succeed
XmlNodeList PropertyNodes = itemNode.SelectNodes(".//Property");
Thanks anyway to anyone who tried to help.

<cepara>ABSTRACT: Stroke remains worlds second leading cause of mortality; and globally most frequent cause of long-lasting disabilities. The ischaemic pathophysiologic cascade leading to neuronal damage consists of peri-infarct depolarization, excitotoxicity, inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Despite plethora of experimental evidences and advancement into the development of treatments, clinical treatment of acute stroke still remains challenging. Neuro-protective agents, as novel therapeutic strategy confer neuro-protection by targeting the pathophysiologic mechanism of stroke. The aim of this review is discussion of summary of the literature on stroke pathophysiology, current preclinical research findings of neuroprotective agents in stroke and possible factors that were responsible for the failure of these agents to translate in human stroke therapies.</cepara>

from this xml i need to delete root tag alone but i need all child element

how to delete root tag alone. For this i followed following code
XDocument CarXML = new XDocument();
CarXML.Add(Root);
CarXML.Descendants("root").Remove();
CarXML.Save(#"CAR.XML");
But this code delete all xml tag. How to delete root element alone. i need child element
CarXML.ReplaceNodes(CarXML.Descendants("author").FirstOrDefault());
This replaces the whole content of the XML with the first descendant named author.

Preparing XSD of a complex xml

Thank you all for suggesting things and helping whenever in need.
Yesterday I was trying to develop and web app in asp.net 4.0 where I needed to parse the data from xml and save it in database. But before that I will also have to validate it.
I tried using .net provided tool xsd.exe to generate the schema file, but I dont know how will it know to mark which nodes or attributes are compulsory?
Like in my xml below items are mandatory
Root node <Market>
<Login> and its sub element
<ProductType> and its <ProductTypeID/>
The attribute DML is mandatory but should have only 3 values NONE, PUT or MODIFY
<ProductType> may or may not have <ProductItem>
If <ProductItem> is present then it should have <ProductItemID>
<ProductItem> may or may not have <Brand>
If <Brand> is present then it should have <BrandID>
Below is my xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Market>
<Login>
<LoginId />
<Password />
</Login>
<ProductType DML="NONE">
<ProductTypeID/>
<Name/>
<Detail/>
<ProductItem DML="PUT">
<ProductItemID/>
<Name/>
<Detail/>
<Brand DML="PUT">
<BrandID/>
<Name/>
<Detail/>
</Brand>
<Brand DML="MODIFY">
<BrandID/>
<Name/>
<Detail/>
</Brand>
</ProductItem>
<ProductItem DML="MODIFY">
<ProductItemID/>
<Name/>
<Detail/>
</ProductItem>
</ProductType>
</Market>
How and where should I specify all the mandatory and optional parameters, so that my xsd is generated as per the requirement.
Thanks,
M.
xsd.exe can only try to infer, which elements/attributes are in you xml, but it cannot find out which information is mandatory. But this is a good startingpoint.
use a graphical XML_Schema_Editor to edit the genrated xsd to mark your mandatory fields. That is much easier than learning the xsd-language
I don't think XSD support nested XML. I would try to load the XML into an XmlDocument and check mandatory fields manually.

XmlDocument - I want <Item></Item> and not <Item/>

I have to send an XML as a SOAP response to a SAP WAS.
SAP is quite fussy with what you are sending (special characters and stuff), and by now I want to exhaust all possibilities.
Is there a way when you make a myXMLDoc.LoadXml
to specify something like "do not shorten tags when empty"?
Usually when you make this:
<item>
<Trkorr>TDEK978887</Trkorr>
<Sequence>0</Sequence>
<Solicit>cggaste</Solicit>
<Type></Type><Id></Id><Number></Number><Message></Message>
</item>
It transforms it to:
<item>
<Trkorr>TDEK978887</Trkorr>
<Sequence>0</Sequence>
<Solicit>cggaste</Solicit>
<Type/><Id/><Number/><Message/>
</item>
Any property I'm missing?
BTW (I don't think it's worth another question, so...)
<soap-env:Envelope xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap-env:Body>
<soap-env:Fault>
<faultcode>soap-env:Server</faultcode>
<faultstring xml:lang="en">SOAP processing failure, error id = 112</faultstring>
</soap-env:Fault>
</soap-env:Body>
</soap-env:Envelope>
This is the error sap's returning.
Thanks in advance!
No, there isn't another way without writing everything yourself.
And even with that done, that's not the problem.
The problem is something on the SAP Server and/or the SAP Parameters you were sending beside those you show.
I'm not sure the end tags are the real problem. Take a look at SAP note 1318784 on how to enable tracing and use this to find out what's behind the error message 112.

Pivotviewer's .cxml parsing

I'm trying to do very simple operations on a .cxml file. As you know it's basically an .xml file. This is a sample file I created to test the application:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Collection xmlns:p="http://schemas.microsoft.com/livelabs/pivot/collection/2009" SchemaVersion="1.0" Name="Actresses" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/collection/metadata/2009">
<FacetCategories>
<FacetCategory Name="Nationality" Type="LongString" p:IsFilterVisible="true" p:IsWordWheelVisible="true" p:IsMetaDataVisible="true" />
</FacetCategories>
<!-- Other entries-->
<Items ImgBase="Actresses_files\go144bwo.0ao.xml" HrefBase="http://www.imdb.com/name/">
<Item Id="2" Img="#2" Name="Anna Karina" Href="nm0439344/">
<Description> She is a nice girl</Description>
<Facets>
<Facet Name="Nationality">
<LongString Value="Danish" />
</Facet>
</Facets>
</Item>
</Items>
<!-- Other entries-->
</Collection>
I can't get any functioning simple code like:
XDocument document = XDocument.Parse(e.Result);
foreach (XElement x in document.Descendants("Item"))
{
...
}
The test on a generic xml is working. The cxml file is correctly loaded in document.
While watching the expression:
document.Descendants("Item"), results
the answer is:
Empty "Enumeration yielded no results" string
Any hint on what can be the error? I've also add a quick look to get Descendants of Facet, Facets, etc., but there are no results in the enumeration. This obviously doesn't happen with a generic xml file I used for testing. It's a problem I have with .cxml.
Basically your XML defines a default namespace with the xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/collection/metadata/2009" attribute:
That means you need to fully qualify your Descendants query e.g.:
XDocument document = XDocument.Parse(e.Result);
foreach (XElement x in document.Descendants("{http://schemas.microsoft.com/collection/metadata/2009}Item"))
{
...
}
If you remove the default namespace from the XML your code actually works as-is, but that is not the aim of the exercise.
See Metadata.CXML project under http://github.com/Zoomicon/Metadata.CXML sourcecode for LINQ-based parsing of CXML files.
Also see ClipFlair.Metadata project at http://github.com/Zoomicon/ClipFlair.Metadata for parsing one's CXML custom facets too
BTW, at http://ClipFlair.codeplex.com can checkout the ClipFlair.Gallery project for how to author ASP.net web-based forms to edit metadata fragments (parts of CXML files) and merge them together in a single one (that you then convert periodically to DeepZoom CXML with PAuthor tool from http://pauthor.codeplex.com).
If anyone is interested in doing nesting (hierarchy) of CXML collections see
http://github.com/Zoomicon/Trafilm.Metadata
and
