This section allows you edit the XML document present in the server. Those are: GVAdapters.xml, GVSupport.xml, GVCore.xml and GVVariables.xml. Press "Edit" icon in correspondence of the document you want to modify:
In the next figure it is shown how it works the GVServices section of GVCore.

- Show subelements ( "children") of the current element and the possible operations to add, remove and edit the children.
