Prerequisites:

  • Start the Synapse configuration numbered 16: i.e.

...

  • wso2esb-samples.sh -sn 16 
  • Start the Axis2 server and deploy the SimpleStockQuoteService if not already done.

languagebash
./axis2server.sh

 This Sample demonstrates the use of dynamic keys with mediators. XSLT mediator is used as an example for that and deference between static and dynamic usage of keys are shown with that.

 The first registry resource "transform/transform.xslt" is set as a property value. Inside the XSLT mediator the local property value is lookup using the Xpath expression "get-property()". Likewise any Xpath XPath expression can be enclosed inside "{ }" to denote that it is a dynamic key. Then the mediator will evaluate the real value for that expression.

 The second XSLT resource "transform/transform_back.xslt" is used simply as a static key as usual. It is not included inside "{ }" and because of the mediator directly use the static value as the key.

 Execute the custom quote client as 'ant stockquote -Dmode=customquote' and analys the output which is similar to the Sample 8.

Info

You can try with different local entries as the source with the correct target xpath XPath values.
