Sample Code to Return Data to Populate a Microsoft Word Communication

The following sample code snippet illustrates how to write the code to build the values into a blob object and return it in order to insert the values into the Microsoft Word document. Note that values are inserted in the form of name-value pairs using the org.jdom.Element.

The NAME attribute in the name-value pair is the name of the DocProperty inserted in the template. The VALUE attribute is the correspondent-specific data that will replace the field in the created Microsoft Word communication.

    org.jdom.Element rootElement = new org.jdom.Element("ROOT");
    org.jdom.Element fieldsElement = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELDS");
    
    org.jdom.Element fieldElement = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELD");
    fieldElement.setAttribute ("NAME", "personName");
    fieldElement.setAttribute ("VALUE", "James Smith");
    fieldsElement.addContent (fieldElement);
    
    org.jdom.Element fieldElement1 = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELD");
    fieldElement1.setAttribute ("NAME", "AddressLine1");
    fieldElement1.setAttribute ("VALUE", "1074, Park Terrace");
    fieldsElement.addContent (fieldElement1);
    
    org.jdom.Element fieldElement2 = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELD");
    fieldElement2.setAttribute ("NAME", "AddressLine2");
    fieldElement2.setAttribute ("VALUE", "Fairfield, Midway");
    fieldsElement.addContent(fieldElement2);
    
    org.jdom.Element fieldElement3 = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELD");
    fieldElement3.setAttribute ("NAME", "AddressLine3");
    fieldElement3.setAttribute ("VALUE", "UTAH");
    fieldsElement.addContent (fieldElement3);
    
    org.jdom.Element fieldElement4 = new org.jdom.Element ("FIELD");
    fieldElement4.setAttribute ("NAME", "userName");
    fieldElement4.setAttribute ("VALUE", "Caseworker");
    fieldsElement.addContent (fieldElement4);
    
    rootElement.addContent (fieldsElement);
    
    return new curam.util.type.Blob (
    new org.jdom.output.XMLOutputter
    .outputString(rootElement).getBytes());
