TIBCO BusinessEvents® Enterprise Edition 6.3.1

# Enabling Use of the Nillable Attribute

The presence of the `xsd:nillable` attribute in an XSD element means that the corresponding element in the XML file permits null values.

Setting `tibco.be.schema.nil.attribs=true` in `studio.tra` causes the `xsd:nillable` attribute (`"xsd:nillable=true"`) to be set on all elements in the TIBCO BusinessEvents concept XSD. When an element in the XML file generated using that XSD has a null value, the `xsi:nil="true"` attribute is set on that element.

When set to false, the `xsd:nillable` attribute is not added and the corresponding XML file does not treat empty elements as null values.

In the absence of the `xsd:nillable` attribute in the XSD element, a corresponding empty element in the XML file is assumed to have a value. Elements that have no value are treated as empty strings (`""`).

Note: Effect on schema generation tool
The setting for this property affects the concept XSD files generated using the Generate Schema utility.
