Need help with docs

[Tim Badolato]

I have been reading the documentation and I see xml examples all over. For example in the "Define / Introspect Table" section, there is the following example:

<tables>

  <table name="Records" introspect="true">

    <field ColumnName="RecordID" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_INTEGER" PrimaryKey="true" Increment="true" />

    <field ColumnName="RecordVal" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" Length="80" />

    <field ColumnName="RecordDescrip" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_LONGVARCHAR" />

    <field ColumnName="isValueable" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_BIT" Default="false" />

  </table>

</tables>

However I can't find any examplanation or examples of how I am supposed to use this xml.

Should it work like this?

<cfset xmlstuff = StructNew()>

<cfsavecontent variable="xmlstuff.xml"><cfoutput>

<tables>

  <table name="Records" introspect="true">

    <field ColumnName="RecordID" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_INTEGER" PrimaryKey="true" Increment="true" />

    <field ColumnName="RecordVal" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_VARCHAR" Length="80" />

    <field ColumnName="RecordDescrip" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_LONGVARCHAR" />

    <field ColumnName="isValueable" CF_DataType="CF_SQL_BIT" Default="false" />

  </table>

</tables>

</cfoutput></cfsavecontent>

<cfset qQuestions = variables.DataMgr.getRecords(tablename="questions",xmlstuff=xmlstuff)>

Help appreciated. 

Thanks!

Tim,

Look just above that example code and see this sentence:
"To define a database schema in DataMgr, use the loadXML method. It has three arguments"

The code example (which I failed to include) would be:

<cfset variables.DataMgr.loadXml(xmlstuff,true,true)>

I'll try to improve this section later. Sorry for the confusion.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Steve
