Hi, is it possible to print a message set from the toolkit where the printout would provide information such as element length and type?

Does it have to be printed from the Toolkit ?
In the event you already didn't know, you could export the .mxsd to the filesystem, and then print the contents from an editor of your choice.
It'll look somethig like this:
| Code: |
<xsd:element name="CLIENT_SSN">
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:appinfo source="http://www.wsadie.com/appinfo">
<initialValue kind="SPACE"/>
</xsd:appinfo>
<xsd:appinfo source="WMQI_APPINFO">
<cwfInclRep messageSetDefaultRep="CWF100" skipCountLeading="0">
<cwfSimpleRep accessor="readWrite"
addrUnit="word" alignment="byte"
attributeInBit="false" characterSize="1"
contentSize="9"
lengthEncoding="fixedLength" offset="47"
paddingCharacter=" " prefixLength="0"
size="9"
stringJustification="leftJustify"
typeName="MRCWFStringRep" width="9"/>
</cwfInclRep>
</xsd:appinfo>
</xsd:annotation>
<xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:length value="9"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:element> |

You can do this within eclipse.
Open the mxsd with the xml editor, and print from there. |

And since it's just an XSD, pretty much, maybe someone could write a tool to produce a pretty Document that listed elements and properties and etc.

Did you try: "File -> New -> Message Set Documentation " to generate HTML from a message set?

Nahh, I meant something more specific to Broker message sets. Something better than the "Message Set Documentation" that Wayne mentioned.
So, not so generic. And if you were really feeling snazzy, something that would export message flow layouts into anything other than bitmaps...

| Can somebody please explain why 'File -> New -> Message Set Documentation' is not suitable? |

A coworker found it:
If you right click on the 2nd level message set folder named, there's a Generate menu option, with an arrow that expands to Message Set documentation.
Thanks Seth! |

Right-click on the folder that is immediately beneath your message set project. Then the menu will offer Generate/Message Set Documentation.
Regarding generated documentation... does anyone know why this happens: Any xsd:string elements that were imported from a copybook appear in the toolkit w/ the data type underneath the element name. IOW, you have to expand the element name (the little plus sign) to see the type. No problem tho [yet]. However, for any elements that are defined "manually" in the message def as the same xsd:string type, the type appears to the right of the element name in the Type column. I'm assuming these are still both the same underlying type.
My question then: when you Generate Message Set Doc, the elements that were defined the first way (imported) appear in the docs with the CWF field lengths (which is what I want). But any elements that were created the second way (manual def) do not have the field lengths?
Thank you. |

In a manual definition, where would it take the field length from?
As to the structure of the display, I'm sure it's a reflection of the internal xsd structure - where imported elements are created with a private complex type that has annotations on the simple type and manually created elements are merely created as being of the simple type, with annotations.

| From the same place it gets them from on the "automatic" (imported) def: Physical Properties, CWF1, Local Element - where I manually defined the Length Count??? |
