ATG includes a utility program for parsing XML templates. This program, startSQLRepository, reads a repository definition from an XML file or DOM and:
Verifies your XML is correctly formed and compliant with the DTD.
Parses and processes optional operation tags like
<add-item>,<remove-item>, and<query-items>. These tags provide a means for adding, removing, updating items in your SQL repository.Generates SQL statements required to create appropriate table structure in database when you use the
–outputSQLflag.Returns results of
<query-items>and<print-item>requests in the form of<add-item>tags. This allows you to easily copy and paste the results into another XML template, so you can add the items to another repository.Imports and exports items and item descriptors.
