Chapter 4 Working with an XML model


Mapping complex types

You can map complex types to XML Model objects.

Once the complex types are identified and mapped with the complex types in the other XML Model, you can define mappings between complex type attributes and complex type attributes in the other XML Model.

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

Complex Type Sources sub-tab

The Complex Type Sources sub-tab allows you to associate one or several complex types in the data source to the current complex type.

You can use the Add Objects tool to select complex types from the XML Models opened 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 complex type attributes in the source complex types and complex type attributes in the current complex type.

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