In
XML files with reoccurring tags of data such as log files
you must define the root event element for the system. so if
the log structure is as follows:
<doc><logevt>......</logevt><logevt>......</logevt>......</doc>
the "logevt" tag is the event tag. Given that
value enable the system to auto analyze the xml and create a
table view of the log. |
6. |
Go next to the XML
schema definition page. |
7. |
In the XML schema
definition page you will see in the upper part of the screen
the XML event text in the middle you will see the result of
the auto analysis of that XML text. Every Tag will be
treated as a column in the table unless this Tag has no
value but sub children as tags, there for this tag will be ignored. If
the analysis is not correct you can correct it in two ways.
One is to change the XML code and press reanalyze XML or to
uncheck the ignore button in the visual editor. Every
Attribute will be treated as a column as well. Unless the
system will identify or you will specify that a certain
Attribute is just a TYPE and there for the value of the Tag
should be treated as a column and the Attribute present the
name o that column. such as <logevt><info
type="user">root</info><info
type="session">12</info></logevt>
in this case the Attribute type="user" is a column
with the value of the info tag, the other info tag is
basically a session column. On the lower pat of the screen
you can see the table created from the XML file. |
