XML Editor - Operation

Operation

• The Editor can be opened most easily through a double-click on a shortcut to the sos.xml.editor.exe binary.
• Clicking File -> Open will open a tab for a new XML configuration file

Specifying the XSD schema

• The XSD schema can either be specified using a file system address or by downloading an XSD schema:
  • entering an HTTP link. The SOS has the following schemas currently available:
    • JADE - Reference Documentation - XSD Schema Reference
    • JobScheduler Monitoring Interface - XSD Schema Reference
  • See the screenshot below:

Developing a Configuration

Once an XML element  has been specified, all mandatory child elements of that element will be automatically added to the configuration and shown in the left hand pane of the editor as shown in the following screenshot:

The right hand pane of the editor shows:

• the reference documentation for the element currently selected,
• entry fields for any attributes that can / have to be specified for the element and
• a list of any child elements already specified (not shown in the screenshot)

The Configurations element in the JADE Reference schema shown in the screenshot above is the root XML element and therefore automatically specified when a new configuration is opened, along with its mandatory child elements.

Adding Child Elements

Optional child elements can be listed by right-clicking on an element and then selecting the required child as shown in the next screenshot.
