How to get the XML file name in freemarker template

[creddy2001]

I am using <#assign docs = alf.parseXMLDocuments('fund_distribution', '/fund distribution/source')> for processing all the xml documents in a folder and rendering as HTML.  Also i am using <#list docs as x> </#list> for looping.

My question is how to get the file name of each xml file.

Help me out in resolving this issue. Its  very urgent.

Thanks
Chandra

Thanks for your promt reply JayJayECL

But it is not working. In alfresco wiki page http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/WCM_Forms_Rendering, its mentioned like

parseXMLDocuments(String formName, String virtualPath)
A function returning an iterator over the root elements of the XML documents at directory given by virtualPath; this interator only contains those form instance data files generated by formName. In FreeMarker, the return value of this function is a list. In XSL, the return value is a node-set. In either case, the attribute alf:file_name is set on each element; this contains the name of the file that was parsed.

If i try to get the file name using ${alf.file_name}, its throwing non string exception. But Its working with XSL template (<xsl:value-of select="fn:replaceAll(string(@alf:file_name), '.xml', '.html')"/>).

How to get the alf:file_name attribute value using freemarker template.

Please help me out in resolving this isssue.

Thanks

I havent tried but I guess it should be working.
For more info go to http://www.benh.co.uk/alfresco/example-alfparsexmldocuments-using-xsl-and-freemarker/


<#list parsedPost.@@ as attr>
<#if attr?node_name = 'file_name'>
<#list attr?split(".") as name>
<#if name_has_next>
<#assign myFilename = name?lower_case>
</#if>
</#list>
</#if>
</#list>

Wouldn't ${alf.form_instance_data_file_name} do the same thing? http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/WCM_Forms_Rendering
