l
Split method: Use this box only if you want to edit the standard XSLT script that will be used to split
the XML file. First use the Standard XML splitter option to define the standard settings. Then, to
change the standard XSLT script, select Advanced XML splitter and edit the script as required.
l Standard XML splitter
The following options are only displayed when the Standard XML splitter option is selected in
the Split method box.
l
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.
l
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.
l
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.
l
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).
l
New file root structure group: Use this group to tailor the structure of the generated XML
files.
l
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).
l
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.
l
Encoding group: This group lets you indicate whether 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.
l
Use UTF8 encoding: Select if you want to use the UTF8 encoding to process the file.
