Checking an XML model
Checking an XML model
The XML Model is a very flexible tool. It should allow you to build your model without any controls or constraints on data exchange and consistency of the system.
However, you can use the Check Model feature at any time to control the consistency and correctness of the model you are building.
You can:
♦Define check options, such as level of problem severity and automatic correction
♦Select objects to be verified
♦Check an XML model
♦Reuse check options previously defined
♦Make corrections based on XML model check results
XML model check options
When you check an XML model, if a parameter is found to be invalid, it will be displayed as an error or a warning in the Check Model window.
You can define levels of severity for problems that Check Model finds and you can have certain problems automatically corrected.
Levels of problem severity
You can identify the level of problem severity with the following tool:
Tool Indicates | Description |
Error | Major problem that produces an invalid XML model |
Warning
Minor problem or recommendation
To display the severity level options, select Tools→Check Model, then expand the nodes of the tree view in the options tab.
