Title: Documenting Framework Model
Post by: k2 on 04 Sep 2011 12:25:09 PM
Hi there,

Could some one give a idea about how to export the .xml version of Framework Manager "Model Report" to a spreadsheet to document in a legible way. Thanks

Kind Regards
K2

You can process the model.xml by using a (custom build) XSLT stylesheet. We did this with an 8.2 version. The output is a html representation of the model. The XSLT requires extensive input regarding the precise structure of the FM model. For instance, you need to assess the structure of the model in terms of nested namespaces. Nasty job   >:(

Thanks for your response.
Is it possible to provide more information or an example to do the documentation transfer to XSLT please. Thanks
