XML export

[SaschaR]

Hi,
I am trying to export my requirements to a specific xml file. It should look like this :
<requirementsPackage>
   <requirement>
      <requirementTitle>#addElementName#</requirementTitle>
      <requirementText>#addNotesHere#</requirementText>
   </requirement>
</requirementPackage>

First, I thought I could edit an HTML Template, but this dont really work.
Is there any other workaround to do something like this?

The easiest way is probably to go directly to the database and use standard tools for the export.

You have a number of options that I can think of.

• Automation client.
  
• Direct database access.
  
• Stylesheet applied to XMI export.
  
• Post process a CSV export.

Thank you both for your answers.
I think I will try the automation client.
I heard rumors, that it is possible to write automation Add-Ins using Java.
Can someone tell me more about this?

Not an addin, but you can call EA from Java.  In your EA install directory there is a 'Java API' subdirectory that contains the necessary files and instructions.  The actual API that java gets is the same as the rest of EA's automation interface, so you'll need to look at the documentation for that.
