I have an Application/Java ArrayList. That contains XML elements in String format. I want to add to a main/root node with Dataweave 2:

%dw 2.0
output application/xml
---
shops: write(vars.shop, "application/xml")

But it returns:

Caused by:
javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamException: Trying to write END_DOCUMENT when document has no root (ie. trying to output empty document)

How can I solved that? I tried with application/java but still failing, the problem is into the write() method trying to transform the array to XML.

What does the vars.shop has? Most commonly for xml building you need to use the dynamic object feature.

 %dw 2.0
output application/xml
ns ns0 http://example/catalog/2002-13-23
var shops = ["data example","data example2","data example123","data example345","data example56"]
---
{
    ns0#shops @("shops-id": "demo"): {
        (shops map (shopName) -> {
            ns0#shop: shopName     
        })
    }
}

This script outputs 

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<ns0:shops xmlns:ns0="http://example/catalog/2002-13-23" shops-id="demo">
  <ns0:shop>data example</ns0:shop>
  <ns0:shop>data example2</ns0:shop>
  <ns0:shop>data example123</ns0:shop>
  <ns0:shop>data example345</ns0:shop>
  <ns0:shop>data example56</ns0:shop>
</ns0:shops>
