XML Data mapper

Introduction

XML Data mapper module allows users to implement a data transformation from one format defined by a source xsd to a format defined by a target xsd, and create xsl documents in a data transformation defined in VulCon. The use of graphics speeds up the process of defining the mapping of data, and give it a simple and efficient graphical representation.

How to create a new data transformation

The steps required to create a graphical form of data transformation are:

• Access the VulCon Core view and expand the GVDataTransformation node
• Click on Transformations item with right mouse button and choose in the drop-down list

Transformations --> Create XSLT Transformation

• Using the appearing wizard, insert the data transformation definition parameters:
  • Transformation Name: a configuration file with .gvxdt extension and a xsl transformation file with .xsl extension will be created with the name choosen in this field
  • Data Source: the datasource name that indicates the repository where files will be deposited
  • Path XSL: internal del datasource path in which the xsl file will be generated
  • XSD Input: xsd file name defining the source format
  • root XSD Input: source xsd file root element name from which start the data transformation operation
  • XSD Output: xsd file name defining the target format
  • root XSD Output: target xsd file root element name from which start the data transformation operation
