Attribute Mapping

Diagrams User Guide

Diagrams : Utilities : Gateway Mapping : Attribute Mapping

Attributes mapping for Diagrams Gateway provides basic functionality of defining attributes for published drawings elements. Single "attribute" node can contain the following attributes:


class	name of element class (TYPE) of which attribute will be mapped from. This field is always required.
from	element attribute name (standard or pseudo) from which a value will be published. This field is also required.
to	name of attribute that exists in published element name. This field is optional. If it is not defined, then the name will be passed from the from field.
output	this field is optional and its default value is True. Attributes with output value set to True will always be added to the published elements. If the value is set to False the attribute will be omitted from the published element.

Notes:

Field class also accepts the special value ALL which will make the mapped attribute added to every published EIWM Object unless the same attribute is already mapped for the specific class.

If the Keep Unmapped Attributes flag was checked in the Gateway mapping form and there are attributes defined with the output flag set to False, such attributes will still be omitted from the published data.
