The following options are only displayed when the Standard XML splitter option is selected in the Split method
box.
Condition node path: In the tree view, select the XML node to consider to determine when to split the file.
To indicate whether you want the file to be split whenever this node is encountered or whenever the
information in this node changes, see the Condition group below.
Condition group: Use this group to indicate whether you want the file to be split whenever this node is
encountered or whenever the information in this node changes.
When condition node is found: Select if you want the file to be split whenever the node selected in the
Condition node path box is encountered.
When condition node content changes: Select if you want the file to be split whenever the information
stored in node selected in the Condition node path box changes.
When this option is selected, the split files typically contain more information (all the orders for a given
customer, for example).
New file root structure group: Use this group to tailor the structure of the generated XML files.
Keep XML structure: Select if you want the generated files to have the exact same structure as the original
XML file (all the way to the root node).
Add new root node: Select this option and enter a root node name in the box to the right, if you want the
generated files to have a structure that begins with a new root name and that then goes directly to the node
on which the file was split, as indicated in the Split on node box below.
Encoding group: This group lets you indicate wether you want the splitter to use the file’s own encoding or
the universal encoding UTF8 to process the file. Note that if the file contains no indication as to which
encoding should be used, the default system encoding will be used. This may result in errors being generated
or split files that contain bad data. Using the UTF8 encoding can prevent such errors.
Use UTF8 encoding: Select if you want to use the UTF8 encoding to process the file.
Use file’s encoding: Select if you want to use the XML file’s own encoding to process the file.
Advanced XML splitter options
The following options and buttons are only displayed when the Advanced XML splitter option is selected in the
Split method box. Note that you should not use this option before you have completed all the required
settings using the Standard XML splitter option.
Refresh XSLT: Once you have made all the required settings using the Standard XML splitter option, click
this button to display the XML code generated by the XML splitter. You can then use the box below to edit the
code as required.
{WATCHTEMPFOLDER} file separator: Use this box to edit the default XML file separator (/).
Alternate XSLT Engine tab
This tab lets you choose the splitter settings for your own XSLT engine. If you want to use the default
PlanetPress Watch/Server XSLT engine, click the General tab.
Use alternate XSLT engine group: Select this option to enable the box and the buttons included in this group.
Path and parameters for the alternate engine: Enter your XSLT engine’s absolute path (use quotes for non
DOS 8.3 compliant paths) followed by its required operators and parameters (you must know exactly which
operators and parameters your XSLT engine requires and in which order they must appear in the command
prompt used to launch the engine). Note that you should not enter fixed values for the following parameters:
for the XSLT stylesheet parameter, click the XSLT file button to add the {XSLTFILE} variable to the command
prompt; for the source XML data file parameter, click the Data file button to add the {DATAFILE} variable; for
the output file parameter, click the Output file(s) button to add the {OUTPUTFILE} variable (when you click
the buttons below, the corresponding parameters are automatically added at the current cursor position).
