XML Document to XML Hierarchy Method Arguments

This topic describes the input and output arguments for the XML Document to XML Hierarchy method of the XML Hierarchy Converter.

Input Arguments

The following table describes the input arguments for the XML Document to XML Hierarchy method of the XML Hierarchy Converter.

Display Name	Name	Data Type	Description
XML Document	<Value>	String	The input XML Document. If XML converter business services that expect XML Document (EAI XML Converter, XML Converter, XML Hierarchy Converter) are being used, then <Value> should contain a binary buffer rather than a text string. With workflows, use the Binary data type for the process property for XML Document.
Escape Names	EscapeNames	String	Invalid characters in XML tags will be escaped, using Siebel’s internal escape format. If True, then process Escape characters (this is the default). If False, then do not process Escape characters.
Validate External Entity	ValidateExternalEntity	String	If True, then the parser will be set to validate against external metadata, such as DTD schemas.
External Entity Directory	ExternalEntityDirectory	String	Location of external entity files, such as DTD files.
Ignore Character Set Conversion Errors	IgnoreCharSetConvErrors	String	Default is False. If the Siebel application cannot represent a given character set, such as the local code page character set, then conversion errors are logged, including a warning log entry. When set to True, only a warning message is logged.

Output Arguments

The following table describes the output arguments for the XML Document to XML Hierarchy method of the XML Hierarchy Converter.

Display Name	Name	Data Type	Description
XML Character Encoding	XMLCharEncoding	String	Character encoding of the XML document, detected by the converter, independent of the parser.
