XML Core Services and Document Object Model (DOM) |
SYSGEN_MSXML_DOM |
Supports basic DOM for MSXML. This catalog item performs DTD and schema verification on documents if desired and includes XML error strings not included in xmlminisax. It also supports schema caching. This catalog item is required by all other core XML catalog items except xmlminisax. Selecting this catalog item automatically selects xmlnetful networking. For more information, see XML Core Services and Document Object Model. |
XML Error Strings |
SYSGEN_MSXML_ERROR_STRINGS |
Includes error strings in the OS design. Setting this Sysgen variable increases the image size by 40 KB, but provides more meaningful information to developers when there are errors parsing XML text. For more information, see XML OS Design Development. |
