Trace for XML data
An XML-formatted trace file that contains XML validation information can be created during map execution for maps that contain XML schemas. When enabled, the XML trace file (mapname_log.xml) is generated in the map directory in addition to the general trace file. The XML trace file is not generated when no input card is present in the map.
For maps that contain XML schemas (created using Xerces), the input XML validation information that is generated to the regular trace file (.mtr) or that is viewable on the Trace tab of the Organizer is not valid. See the XML trace file (mapname_log.xml) for accurate XML input validation information.
When viewed with Microsoft Internet Explorer, the XML trace file:
- Contains a validation log.
- Displays the XML validation sequence.
- Presents validation results.
When using a browser other than Microsoft Internet Explorer, only the content of the XML file is displayed.
Similar to the general trace, you must enable certain MapTrace settings to create an XML trace file.
