ABAP_DESCRIPTION Using simple XML data, this example demonstrates how possible steps work, alongside NEXT_NODE> and NEXT_ATTRIBUTE>, in token-based parsing> with an XML reader from sXML Library>.
The method CURRENT_NODE> resets an iteration across an attribute list back to its start.
The method PUSH_BACK> first branches an iteration from a value node to the associated element opening and from there to the element opening of the superelement.
The method SKIP_NODE> then parses all subnodes up to the end of element of the XML data. In this example, the demonstration methods process a known XML data structure. A further executable example> demonstrates the methods without the entire structure of XML data being known in advance.
