How can I put an an EDIFACT message (containing multiple special characters and multiple lines) in a variable using groovy?

I have an EDIFACT message, which looks something like this:

AAA:+.? '
ABC+ABCD:1+ABCDEFG:ZZ+ABCDEF:ZZ+123456:2042+12345678901++ABCD'
DEF+ABCD+LH+FVKJUB+20000:2042+Y1234567+UN+D:21B'
GHI+1+ABCD:D:11A:AA:ABCD+ABCD12345678901123ABC123456'

Using a Jmeter JSR223 Sampler, I need to send it as a payload to an IBM MQ message queue.

I am trying to put this message in a variable so that I can pass it around, but I am getting errors because of all the special characters it contains.

def sessInboundQueue = System.getProperties().get("SessionInbound")
def destinationInboundQueue = System.getProperties().get("DestinationInbound")
def producer = sessInboundQueue.createProducer(destinationInboundQueue) 

def payload = "AAA:+.? '
ABC+ABCD:1+ABCDEFG:ZZ+ABCDEF:ZZ+123456:2042+12345678901++ABCD'
DEF+ABCD+LH+FVKJUB+20000:2042+Y1234567+UN+D:21B'
GHI+1+ABCD:D:11A:AA:ABCD+ABCD12345678901123ABC123456'

ZZZ+1+U1234560002'"
def msg = sessInboundQueue.createTextMessage(payload)

This is the error:

    Script87.groovy: 9: Unexpected input: '"' @ line 9, column 15.
   def payload = "AAA:+.? '
Solution

  • multiline string in groovy must be tripple-quoted:

    GString (with interpolation support)

    def payload = """AAA:+.? '
ABC+ABCD:1+ABCDEFG:ZZ+ABCDEF:ZZ+123456:2042+12345678901++ABCD'
DEF+ABCD+LH+FVKJUB+20000:2042+Y1234567+UN+D:21B'
...
"""

    String (plain java string)

    def payload = '''AAA:+.? '
ABC+ABCD:1+ABCDEFG:ZZ+ABCDEF:ZZ+123456:2042+12345678901++ABCD'
DEF+ABCD+LH+FVKJUB+20000:2042+Y1234567+UN+D:21B'
...
