Editing with the function model editor

You can use the function model editor to edit function.xml files in IBM® Streams Studio.

1. In the Project Explorer view, locate the icon for a function, and double-click the icon to open the function model editor. Alternatively, you can navigate to the function model file in the Resource folder, and double-click the model file.
2. In the Tree tab, open the twistie for the following icon to reveal child elements in the model.
3. Select and right-click on an element, and then select Show Properties from the menu. The properties for that element, if any, are displayed in the Eclipse Properties view.
4. To change the value of a property, update the value in the Value column, and click Save.
5. To view and edit the XML source, select the Source tab. As you update items in the logical view within the Tree tab and save, the XML source is updated in the Source tab. Likewise, if you update the text in the Source tab and click Save, the Tree tab is updated.
