Setting Delimiters
To set delimiters we use the ASCII number of the characters.
Example
const STAR = 42; //’*’
const COLON = 58 //’:’
const TILDA = 126 //’~’
const CARET = 94 //’^’
doc.Delimiters.ElementTerminatorCharacter = STAR;
doc.Delimiters.CompositeTerminatorCharacter = COLON;
doc.Delimiters.SegmentTerminatorCharacter = TILDA;
doc.Delimiters.RepetitionCharactor = CARET;
The Repetition Character was introduced by the X12 EDI format and used in version 5010 of the implementation guides. By default this value is ‘^’. The repeating character will be used for both repeating elements and repeating composite elements.
