Converter URIs can be complex - property names and their values vary from one XML Converters to another, for example - so using Stylus Studio to construct them can reduce errors in your applications. Using the URI in the Select XML Converter Dialog BoxTo construct a converter URI using the URI in the Select XML Converter dialog box:
1. Use the XML Converters to open a file as an XML document in Stylus Studio. See Using XML Converters to Open a Non-XML File as XMLor How to Open a File Using a Custom XML Conversion Definition if you need help with this step.
2. Before clicking OK to complete the conversion, copy the converter:URI in the URI field of the Select XML Converter dialog box (see Figure 186).
3. Click OK to complete the conversion. (You can click Cancel if you are peforming this procedure just to obtain the converter:URI.)
4. Paste the converter URI in your XSLT or XQuery code as needed.
Using the URI in the Properties WindowTo construct converter URI using the URI in the Properties window:
1. Use the XML Converters to open a file as an XML document in Stylus Studio. See Using XML Converters to Open a Non-XML File as XMLor How to Open a File Using a Custom XML Conversion Definition if you need help with this step.
2. Open a new document in any Stylus Studio text editor (for example, File > New > XML Document).
The purpose of this step is to provide an editor into which you can drag-and-drop the the document you created in step 1 in order to display the associated converter:URI.
3. Drag the document you created in step 1from the Project window and drop it into the text editor you opened in step 2.
The complete URI appears in the text editor.
4. Copy the complete converter URI.
5. Paste the converter URI in your XSLT or XQuery code as needed.
