PI mapping: concatenating multiple records to just one field

Question

Hi
I am trying to concatenate an unknown number of records in the source message to just one field in the target message.
The structure in the source message is:
<simple>
   <record>
       <string>first string value</string>
   </record>
   <record>
       <string>second string value</string>
   </record>
   <record>
       <string>third string value</string>
   </record>
<concatstring></concatstring>
</simple>
Where the number of records in the source message is unknown.
The target message should look like this:
<simple>
    <concatstring>first string value second string value third string value</concatstring>
</simple>
I tried using UDF:
public String concat(String count,String streng,Container container){
int counter = Integer.parseInt(count);
String out = " ";
for(int i=0;i<(counter);i++){
out  = out + streng;
return out;
But that only picks up the value of the field in the first record and repeats that the number of counts.
Can I avoid using a UDF? If not, what is the code?
Looking forward to the answer
Mikael
