This sample demonstrates the usage of the TIBCO StreamBase® XML File Writer adapter, which is an embedded adapter suitable for streaming tuples to a text file formatted with XML tags.
The XML file created by this adapter does not contain a root node. Each tuple streamed by the adapter should be treated as an individual document. Input fields of type list or tuple are not supported.
In StreamBase Studio, import this sample with the following steps:
-
From the top-level menu, click
→ . -
Type
xmlf
to narrow the list of options. -
Select XML file output adapter from the StreamBase Standard Adapters category.
-
Click
.
StreamBase Studio creates a project for the sample.
-
In the Project Explorer, open the sample you just loaded.
-
Open the
src/main/eventflow
folder. -
Open the package folder (most samples contain a single package folder. Open the top-level package folder if your sample contains more than one folder).
-
Open the named application file. In the EventFlow editor, click the XMLFileWriter adapter icon to open its Properties view.
-
In the Adapter Properties tab, change File Name to point to a location on your machine where you want the log to be written when the application is run.
-
Make sure the application is the currently active tab in the EventFlow Editor.
Click the
Run button. This opens the SB Test/Debug perspective and starts the application.
If you see red marks, wait a moment for the project in Studio to load its features.
If red marks do not resolve themselves in a moment, select the project and right-click
→ from the context menu. -
In the SB Test/Debug perspective, select the Manual Input tab.
-
Enter a valid integer for a and click .
-
When done, press F9 or click the
Stop Running Application button.
-
The file specified in File Name is located in the node's root path and should now contain tuples formatted as follows:
<tuple> <a>2</a> </tuple>
When you load the sample into StreamBase Studio, Studio copies the sample project's files to your Studio workspace, which is normally part of your home directory, with full access rights.
Important
Load this sample in StreamBase Studio, and thereafter use the Studio workspace copy of the sample to run and test it, even when running from the command prompt.
Using the workspace copy of the sample avoids permission problems. The default workspace location for this sample is:
studio-workspace
/sample_adapter_embedded_xmlfilewriter
See Default Installation Directories for the default location of studio-workspace
