Purpose

Create an XML stream rule to define an XML template or skeleton message as part of an interface between your Process Commander system and an external system.

Process Commander can assemble and send an XML document in an e-mail message, a SOAP message, a file, or other types of messages.

Like Process Commander source HTML, the XML text in each XML stream rule can contain directives or JSP tags that reference clipboard properties. At runtime, the system performs stream processing to evaluate these directives or JSP tags and form the final XML message.

Where referenced

Connect SOAP, Service SOAP, and Service Email rules often use XML Stream rules to compose an XML document from clipboard property values. Most other service and connector rules can use XML Stream rules. In an activity, the Property-Set-XML method evaluates an XML Stream rule using stream processing.

In additional, XML Stream rules define the structure of menus in the Developer portals.

Access

Use the Application Explorer to access XML Stream rules that apply to the work types in your application. Use the Rules by Type Explorer to list all XML Stream rules available to you.

Development

If you have a Document Type Definition (DTD) or XML Schema (XSDL) file that defines the structure of XML documents to be produced by an XML Stream rule, you can create classes, properties, and XML stream rules corresponding to the XML definition automatically, using an accelerator tool. See About the Connector and Metadata accelerator.
