doTranslateToNative

This function translates the input DOM to a string or attachment. The targetType can be a STRING or ATTACHMENT.

Signature:

med:doTranslateToNative('input','nxsdTemplate','nxsdRoot','targetType','attachment element'?)

Arguments:

input: The input data of the XPath function. The data can either be DOM or SDOM data that must be translated to a native format such as comma-separated values (CSV).

The input node is usually the root element of the incoming DOM, as shown in the following example:
```
med:doTranslateToNative($in.request/inp1:Root-Element, 'xsd/address_csv.xsd', 
 @ 'Root-Element','STRING')" 
```
However, the input node can also be a subelement and not the root element of the incoming DOM, as shown in the following example:
```
med:doTranslateToNative($in.request/inp1:requestToNative/ns1:Root-Element,
 'xsd/address_csv.xsd', 'Root-Element','ATTACHMENT', 
 $in.request/inp1:requestToNative/inp1:attachment)
```
In this case, you must set the useArrayIdenitifer property to true in the schema node of the NXSD, as shown below.
```
nxsd:useArrayIdentifiers="true" 
```
This setting can adversely impact the performance of this function for very large inputs. You can use the dostreamingxlate function in this case.
nxsdTemplate: The NXSD schema to use to translate the input data to XML format.
nxsdRoot: The root element in the NXSD schema.
targetType: Determines how the XPath function translates the native data into XML.
attachment element: The attachment for the returned XML. This parameter is optional.

Example:

med:doTranslateToNative($in.request/inp1:Root-Element,'xsd/address_csv.xsd','Root-Element','STRING')
