DOM EXPORT TO FILE 


 

DOM EXPORT TO FILE ( elementRef ; filePath ) 
Parameter Type   Description
elementRef  String in Root XML element reference
filePath  Text in Full access path of the file

The DOM EXPORT TO FILE command stores an XML tree in a file on disk.

Pass the root element reference to export in the elementRef parameter.

Pass the full access path to use or create of the export file in filePath. If the file does not already exist, it is created.

If you only pass a file name (without an access path), a search for the file will take place or it will be created next to the structure file.

If you pass an empty string (""), a standard open file and new file dialog box appears.

Example  

This example stores the tree vElemRef in the file MyDoc.xml:

 DOM EXPORT TO FILE(vElemRef;"C:\\folder\MyDoc.xml")

If the command has been executed correctly, the system variable OK is set to 1. Otherwise, it is set to 0 and an error is generated.

An error is generated when:

  • The element reference is invalid,
  • The specified access path is invalid,
  • The storage volume returns an error (insufficient disk space, etc.).
