l Any other curly brackets that are not part of the JavaScript code must be escaped
with a backslash.
l Single line comments (//...) in the code are not supported.
Note that since the XPath is a string, the return value of the JavaScript statement will be
interpreted as a string.
Note
Currently, XPaths that select elements based on an attribute, attribute value, node
value, node counter or node index are not supported.
Note
The information contained in all of the selected parent nodes will be copied for each
instance of that node. For example, if a client node contains multiple invoice nodes, the
information for the client node can be duplicated for each invoice.
The DataMapper only extracts elements for which at least one value or attribute value is
defined in the file.
Boundaries
Boundaries are the division between records: they define where one record ends and the next
record begins; for an explanation see "Record boundaries" on page253.
CSV, Excel or Database file boundaries
Since database data sources are structured the same way as CSV and Excel files, the options
for these file types are identical.
l
Record limit: Defines how many records are displayed in the Data Viewer. This does not
affect output production; when generating output, this option is ignored. To disable the
limit, use the value 0 (zero).
l
Line limit: Defines the limit of detail lines in any detail table. This is useful for files with a
high number of detail lines, which in the DataMapper interface can slow down things.
This does not affect output production; when generating output, this option is ignored. To
disable the limit, use the value 0 (zero).
