To set the value of a target element to a constant:
- In the Message Mapping editor Target
pane, right-click the target element or attribute and click Enter
Expression. If the target element or attribute has
a default value, this value is added to the Edit pane.
- Enter the required constant in the Edit pane and click Enter. When entering the constant, observe the following rules:
- Enclose string element values in single quotation marks.
- Enter numeric element values without quotation marks.
- For boolean element values enter 0 for false or 1 for true, without
quotation marks. Alternatively, you can enter the fn:false()
function for false, or the fn:true() function for true.
The Spreadsheet pane is updated with the value that
you have defined.
You cannot set a value for a simple element if
one of its ancestors also has a mapping. For example, you cannot map Properties
from source to target, then set a value for Properties/MessageFormat.
