Chapter 4 Working with an XML model

Mapping elements

You can map elements to XML Model objects.

Once the elements are identified and mapped with the elements in the other XML Model, you can define mappings between element attributes and element attributes in the other XML Model.

You have to use the Mapping tab of an element property sheet to define element mappings. It contains the following sub-tabs:

Element Sources sub-tab

The Element Sources sub-tab allows you to associate one or several elements in the data source to the current element.

You can use the Add Objects tool to select elements from the XML Models open in the current workspace.

For more information about the Add Objects tool, see the "Mapping Editor" chapter in the General Features Guide.

Attributes Mapping sub-tab

The Attributes Mapping sub-tab allows you to define the mapping between element attributes in the source elements and element attributes in the current element.

For more information about the different tools in the toolbar, see the "Mapping Editor" chapter in the General Features Guide.
