Re: cXML

Hi Jon

:) My last post, I'm now a liar - I used some of your articles 8 or 9 years ago. easy400 still has some articles, i don't know if any of yours, but I've not looked lately.

I've given presentations at COMMON, et al., about using CGIDEV2 to build the component XML files in XLSX files. I give a very basic CGIDEV2 101 as part of it.

Easy to over-think this process!

The articles I wrote many moons ago on the topic have sadly been lost to time. Best I can find is this presentation which looks at a variety of approaches.

Well XML-INTO can be used to consume any cXML that is sent to you. Generation is a different thing.

I would suggest you stop looking for cXML tools specifically - as Vern has pointed out it is just a set of predefined standards for commerce data interchange. Instead, look for tools such as Krengletech's XML-Suite that assist in building XML. You can also use an existing templating system, such as that builtin to CGIDEV2. There is also the XMLi open-source project (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Fxmli%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cddanner%40awtx-itw.com%7Ce6490df69e924df75e5e08db223ac708%7C7fa3ed9ffff94884a6e28dd98886b775%7C0%7C0%7C638142514095397153%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=UFuNHVex4OJ%2Fi0fNuPSfMM%2FO%2B8I1RUUsDZTMamwCIB8%3D&reserved=0 <https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsourceforge.net%2Fprojects%2Fxmli%2F&data=05%7C01%7Cddanner%40awtx-itw.com%7Ce6490df69e924df75e5e08db223ac708%7C7fa3ed9ffff94884a6e28dd98886b

I don't think cXML is a product.

It's an XML data format.

You'll need to learn how to format cXML files for them if they need them.

Or find a vendor that can help with software that can create cXML file
? (Which was maybe what you were after?)

Thanks
