XML/Output
From Rosetta Code
< XML(Redirected from XML Creation)
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Create a function that takes a list of character names and a list of corresponding remarks and returns an XML document of <Character> elements each with a name attributes and each enclosing its remarks. All <Character> elements are to be enclosed in turn, in an outer <CharacterRemarks> element.
As an example, calling the function with the three names of:
April Tam O'Shanter Emily
And three remarks of:
Bubbly: I'm > Tam and <= Emily Burns: "When chapman billies leave the street ..." Short & shrift
Should produce the XML (but not necessarily with the indentation):
<CharacterRemarks>
<Character name="April">Bubbly: I'm > Tam and <= Emily</Character>
<Character name="Tam O'Shanter">Burns: "When chapman billies leave the street ..."</Character>
<Character name="Emily">Short & shrift</Character>
</CharacterRemarks>
The document may include an <?xml?> declaration and document type declaration, but these are optional. If attempting this task by direct string manipulation, the implementation must include code to perform entity substitution for the characters that have entities defined in the XML 1.0 specification.
Note: the example is chosen to show correct escaping of XML strings. Note too that although the task is written to take two lists of corresponding data, a single mapping/hash/dictionary of names to remarks is also acceptable.
Note to editors: Program output with escaped characters will be viewed as the character on the page so you need to 'escape-the-escapes' to make the RC entry display what would be shown in a plain text viewer (See this). Alternately, output can be placed in <lang xml></lang> tags without any special treatment.

First create the table of substitutions and the verb which properly escapes the input string:
tbl=: ('"e;'; '&'; '<'; '>') (a.i.'"&<>')} <"0 a.
esc=: [:; {&tbl@:i.~&a.
Then create the verb which combines name with remark:
cmb=: [:; dyad define &.>
'<Character name="', (esc x), '">', (esc y), '</Character>', LF
)
Finally, create the verb which creates the final XML:
xmlify=: '<CharacterRemarks>', LF, cmb, '</CharacterRemarks>'"_

names=: 'April'; 'Tam O''Shanter'; 'Emily'
remarks=: <;._2]0 :0

[edit] Vedit macro language
The input data is given in an edit buffer, one name+remark pair on each line line, separated with TAB character.
// Replace special characters with entities:
Replace("&", "&", BEGIN+ALL+NOERR) // this must be the first replace!
Replace("<", "<", BEGIN+ALL+NOERR)
Replace(">", ">", BEGIN+ALL+NOERR)
Replace("'", "'", BEGIN+ALL+NOERR)
Replace('"', """, BEGIN+ALL+NOERR)
// Insert XML marking

Repeat(ALL) {
Search("^.", REGEXP+ERRBREAK)
IT(' <Character name="')
Replace('|T', '">')
EOL IT('</Character>')
}
EOF
IT("</CharacterRemarks>") IN
Example input:
April Bubbly: I'm > Tam and <= Emily Tam O'Shanter Burns: "When chapman billies leave the street ..." Emily Short & shrift
Produces this output:
<CharacterRemarks> <Character name="April">Bubbly: I'm > Tam and <= Emily</Character> <Character name="Tam O'Shanter">Burns: "When chapman billies leave the street ..." </Character> <Character name="Emily">Short & shrift</Character> </CharacterRemarks>
