Improvements made to XMLFile Processing

IssueswereencounteredwithrepeatednodesinXMLdatasets.InXMLwhenaddinganExtraction

step,theXPathwasnotgeneratedwithanindex,whichresultedinonlythefirstnodebeingreturned.

Thishasbeenfixed,andrepeatednodesarenowcateredfor.(SHARED-28107/32238)

Improved support for Multi-Byte Encoding

Addedsupportforbytebasedpositioninginadditiontotheexistingcharacterbasedpositioningfor

MultiByte(Big5,GB18030,UTF-8andShift-JIS)textfiles.(SHARED-53174)

Grouping With and Without Sorting

Sometimesthedatausedforgeneratingdocumentsisalreadypre-sorted,butyoumaystillneedto

groupdocumentsintosetsorsegments.Inthosecases,thegroupingprocessshouldnotreorderthe

documents.ThishasnowbeenimplementedinPlanetPressConnect1.7.1.

Considerthefollowingexample:datahasbeenpre-sortedforpostalsorting,whichmeansthatdoc-

umentsforthesamecustomerwillalsobeinconsecutiveorderinthejob(assumingacustomerhasa

singlepostaladdress).Ifwewantdocumentsforthesamecustomertogointothesamejob,wecan

usegroupingtocreatedocumentsetsandwemightusethecustomernumberforthisgrouping.When

thecustomernumberchanges,wewantanewdocumentsettobegin.Ifgroupingbycustomernumber

alsosortsbycustomernumber,ourpre-sortedorderwillgetmessedup.

TheJobCreationsettingshavebeenimprovedtoallowthiskindofgrouping.Sortingascending,des-

cendingornotsortingatallcanbesetperfieldusedforgrouping.(SHARED-45125)
