A quick way of of dumping table records into a xml-file is to use the kernel method xml, which is present on all instances of a tablebuffer. However, the xml produced by this method is NOT well-formed. Three problems exists: No header info for the xml-document is written No root node is written The data within tags are not html escaped When the xml-method is called a call to the GLOBAL class method XMLString method is made. With a little adjustment to this method we can make the XML data output wellformed. But first you must add this method to the GLOBAL class: public static str escapeHTMLChars(str _in) { int x; str out; for(x=1;x<=strlen(_in);x++) { if ((char2num(_in,x) < 32) && (char2num(_in,x) > 126)) { out += '&#'+num2str(...
My thoughts on Dynamics AX application development. I have been working as a consultant with Microsoft ERP-technology since 1994. Currently I work at Optimate A/S. My main focus is customization and application development. This blog is merely my place to put stuff that I want to remember. If anybody can benefit from reading this, that's great :0). Feel free to use any code snippets posted - but accept that you do this at your own risk!!!
