Smooks Graphical Editor page is one tab of the Smooks Editor.
This Graphical editor allows you to perform drug/drop operations with the nodes of transform data to map the source data to target data.
When you save the changes in the Graphical editor the correct Smooks Configuration file content will be generated.
Information on the topic could be found in the Quick Start/Smooks Editor section.
Click the links under the data view, the Data Type Selection wizard page will be shown.
There are sets of transform data type on the wizard page, select one type and click Next, the data source selection wizard page will be shown.
Note:
For different data type, the Data source selection wizard are different too.
When you finish the data selection (file path selection), click Finish, the data view will display the selected data structure.
To get information on the topic please, read the Quick Start/Mapping section.
When you do any mapping operations, the Smooks tools validate the file content with "Mapping Logic". If there are any errors of the configuration file content, error messages are shown in the Problems area.
Please, read the Quick Start/Mapping section to find how to fix the errors.
You can edit the properties of the connection lines with the Properties view.
Navigate to Window > Show View > Other > Properties, to open the Properties view.
When you select on the connection lines, the Properties view will show a set of section GUI for editing the properties of the connection line.
Tip:
This GUI on the Properties view is displayed when the Smooks Graphical editor is active, if not, the Properties view displays empty GUI.
If the source data type of the selected connection line is "XML", the Properties view shows an XML Properties section GUI.
But if the source data type of the selected connection line is "Java", the XML Properties section GUI isn't displayed.
It means that if the source/target data type of the selected connection line is different, the Properties view shows different GUI.
