Editing the MAPexpressions.xml File

The MAPexpression.xml file defines the functions supported by the Map Editor.

Before you can reference a user-defined extension function in a map, you must add an entry for the function to the MAPexpression.xml file.

To edit the MAPexpression.xml file:

  1. To locate the file, go to: {install directory}eclipse\plugins\com.nnsy.ebd.eai.internal.tools_
    version#\grammar\MAPexpressions.xml

  2. Create an entry for the user-defined function in the MAPexpressions.xml file.

The next step in the process is using the extension function in a map.
