Hi Jonathon,
My constraint is as follows.
I need to have an xml file. This xml file is supposed to have some data that
comes from the database.
The best way to do this is write a .bsh script and the use these results, in
xml file using ${variable}.
However the constraint is that i need to have this xml file as static
...because it is called by other application during runtime. The application
parses the data in xml file and is not able to recognize "${variable}" ...
So a possible solution i am thinking of is to store all the results in an
ftl file just give all the necessary formating to it and then just
<#include> it in my xml file..........so that when the application runs ,
xml files copies all the contents from the ftl file.....and before
application runs ...i need to load my data in the ftl file.
I hope now you get the problem statement better......please suggest me of
any ways to do this or better ideas
Regards
