DCR's DCT's Redesigns and XML Transformations

Tim__D

Hello,

Does anyone have any transforming DCR/XML into another data type?

I'm faced with a redesign project for a Templated site. The data types and DCT's will change but I still want to leverage some of the data which is already stored in DCR /XML format.

You are changing just the data-type or changing the DCT as well ?

yes,

i done the transformation DCR's to HTML to PDF & RTF.
You shd try with XSL FO API. and can use the CLT inside the WF also.

Thanks

easy. just write a TPL that will produce DCRs of different structure.

To get a sample of such a DCR, when you have a new category/data type, just create a blank one and use it as a foundation of your TPL

don't forget to attach EAs to your DCTs. This could be done right from the TPL

Ahh thats smart. I was thinking more along the lines of some recursive script to do this type of transformation. Is that also possible? I'm trying to reduce manual work on this project where possible.

Both. To ensure that the DCT is intuitive to produce the resulting data both data type and DCT will be changed.

I actually want to transform the DCR into another DCR of a different data type and scheme. Thanks anyway.

well, basically waht you have to do is to traverse tn existing DCR (XML) and produce a new DCR (XML). Of course, you can use other methods (in XML: Smiley Very Happy

OM or even in TeamSite: Smiley Very Happy

CRNode) to emit new XML, but I believe that the technique that I have decribed is the fastest way of doing this.
