Importing an External XSLT Map

If you have an XSLT map that has been developed with an editor other than JDeveloper, you can import it into JDeveloper.

To import an external map:

  1. From the File main menu, select New > From Gallery.
  2. Under Categories, select General > XML. Under Items, select XSL Map from XSL Stylesheet. Click OK. The XSLT Chooser dialog appears.
  3. Select the XSLT file to be imported. Click OK. The file is opened and a default header is inserted with no source or target schema definition.
  4. To create source and target schema definitions, right-click the Canvas (center) pane, and select Replace/Add Source Schema to set the source schema. Select Replace/Add Target Schema to set the target schema.

    Note:

    Imported maps can use Map View only if both the source and target schemas are defined and there are no XSLT features not supported in Map View.

    All maps can use the XSLT View.
