Input Tab

The input fields for the Render Copybook Data activity are described here.

Input Field Data Type Description
Input Complex This is the input XML data that is formed according to the selected Copybook Schema resource.
forceCharacterSet String This is a runtime override for the Character Set field of the Parse Copybook Data activity. For details, see Character Set.

If you do not specify a value for forceCharacterSet, the Character Set setting under the General tab is in effect. Otherwise, the forceCharacterSet value applies.

Note: Invalid character-set names cause the Plug-in to throw a DeSerializationException exception while executing the activity.

forceCharacterSetDisp1 String This is a runtime override for the Character Set for DISPLAY-1 Items field of the Parse Copybook Data activity. For details, see the description for the Character Set for DISPLAY-1 Items field in Parse Copybook Data — General. This field is available only if you select a COBOL copybook.

If you specify a value for forceCharacterSetDisp1, that value applies. Otherwise, the Character Set for DISPLAY-1 Items setting under the General tab is in effect.

Note: Invalid character-set names cause the Plug-in to throw a DeSerializationException exception while executing the activity.

recordDelimiter Binary This is a runtime override for Record Delimiter field. You can supply any base64Binary value to be used as a record delimiter. This value is only applied when Multiple Records is selected.
asciiZonedFormat String (enumeration) This is a runtime override for the ASCII Zoned Format field of the Render activity. It is used to select a specific flavor of ASCII Zoned Decimal format.

Use this field when the Character Set field or forceCharacterSet field is set to a character set that belongs to the ASCII family.

You can use these values:

  • strict— generate Strict ASCII zoned decimal format.
  • modified— generate Modified ASCII zoned decimal format.

See Handling of Zoned Decimal Items.
