Chapter 3 Converting Non-XML Files to XML


Stylus Studio uses DataDirectXML Converters to convert incoming streams of data from native formats to outgoing streams of XML, and vice-versa. Stylus Studio includes XML Converters for EDI, CSV, binary, and many other file formats. You can also create custom XML converters to convert formats not already supported by DataDirect XML Converters.

This chapter describes how to use DataDirect XML Converters to convert files in Stylus Studio, how to create your own custom XML converters, and how to use files you convert on-the-fly elsewhere in Stylus Studio - as a source for XQuery and XSLT design, for example.

You can read about other video demonstrations for the custom XML conversion definition module here: http://www.stylusstudio.com/learn_convert_to_xml.html#converttoxml.

A complete list of all the videos demonstrating Stylus Studio's features is here: http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml_videos.html.
