Mapping case

Question

Hello XI world...here is my problem...I'm mapping a BAPI to XCBL Format..nearly everything is ok...but one thing :
In my BAPI i have a node for item and i have a node at the same level for item text.
In the Xcbl format, the item text node is a child of item node.
Here a little drawing :
ITEMS
             i1
             i2
             i3
TEXT_ITEMS
            i1 text_item_i1
            i3 text_item_i2
And this sould go to the XCBL Format
XCBL_ITEM
           i1
           XCBL_TEXT_ITEM
           text_item_i1
           i2
           XCBL_TEXT_ITEM
           i3
           XCBL_TEXT_ITEM
           text_item_i3
Do you have any idea to perform such a mapping ?

Hi,
In this case you need to use Context UDF.Here i am sending the sample UDF logic,you go through it and let me know if you get any errors
This UDF you need to use in TEXT_ITEMS filed mapping
Context UDF takes 2 inputs,first input is your ITEMS and 2nd is TEXT_ITEMS.
lets say they are item[] and text[]
then copy this code
for(int k=0;k<item.length;k++)
     for(int j=0;j<text.length;j++)
         if(text[j].startsWith(item[k])
           result.addValue(text[j].replaceFirst(item[k],""));
         else
           result.addValue("");
please let me know if you get any problems with this code.
Cheers,
