CXML-GET-CHILD-BY-ATTR-NAME

Syntax:

CALL "C$XML" USING CXML-GET-CHILD-BY-ATTR-NAME, handle, regex, flags

Parameters:

CXML-GET-CHILD-BY-ATTR-NAME	Op-code 18. Numeric data item that specifies the operation to perform. Each operation is defined in acucobol.def, which is included with your system.
`handle`	USAGE handle
`regex`	A regular expression
`flags` (Optional)	Numeric value

On Entry:

CXML-GET-CHILD-BY-ATTR-NAME	Value 18
`handle`	An element handle
`flags` (Optional)	A collection of flags to apply to the regular expression. The valid flags are listed in acucobol.def and described under C$REGEXP op-code 2. They can be added together to get more than one flag.

On Exit:

RETURN-CODE

The handle of the returned child, or 0 if no such child exists.

Comments:

This operation retrieves an attribute name that matches the regular expression given. Note that this op-code does not retrieve element data, but moves to the element and returns the element handle. Once you have the handle to the element of interest, you can call CXML-GET-DATA to retrieve the data associated with the element.
