As mentioned in this question and discussed in the answers, it is now almost impossible to make FME export an XML document with a <![CDATA[ ]]> section a.k. literal character data.

My intended use was to communicate some HTML-formatted descriptive text in a XML-response about the capabilities of a transformation. This can thus be presented to the end user of the application communicating with my service.

My preferred implementation would be to add a XQuery function in the XMLTemplater

  • get-attribute
  • get-xml-attribute
  • get-cdata-attribute

Kind regards,

Martin
