Generating Presentation and Command XSL Files

For an overview of this topic, see Rendering a Task Interface into a User Interface.

On the Renderings tab of a Task, you can select Create XSL to generate two XSL files that transform input, output, and fault messages into an HTML form that is easy for users to work with.

To create XSL, you must first fill in the Task Interface definition. When you create XSL, the following files are generated:

presentation file, with a name and location of project:/xsl/inbox/processName/TaskName_Presentation.xsl
command file, with a name and location of project:/xsl/inbox/processName/TaskName_Command.xsl
XML file, a file that the XSL transform works on

Note that in the Create XSL dialog, you can set a Maximum Recursion Depth for the Task Output. Set this non-negative integer to indicate how many repeating elements, if applicable, to display in the Output message field. For example, if the message defines a purchase order, and the order can have multiple items, you can set the number of item rows to display initially for the order.

Viewing the Generated XSL files

To view the files created, navigate to your Project Explorer project. Note that a new folder, named xsl, is created to contain the renderings.

For viewing the rendered Task Details, see Working in Development Mode or Production Mode.
