Hi there,
I have some questions about Babeldoc, I hope that you can/will help me.
1. I need some information on the delta (temp) files, which are created when running a pipeline.
Is it possible to open and edit these files directly, or can they just be used within Babeldoc? I'm asking because when I open them with a text-editor, some files just contain "dummy" as text or they contain 3-4 characters, which cannot be displayed correct.
I searched within the Babeldoc Userguide and this forum but couldn't find an answer (well, maybe I just overlooked it).
2. I know that it's possible to split files in Babeldoc using the XPath-Splitter, but is it also possible to put files back together once they are splitted? Or does this happen automatically when using XPath-Splitter?
Example: I want to split one big XML-file into smaller pieces, to send them through mail, after that process the receiver of the mail, may want to put the XML-pieces back together, is that possible? Or maybe something similar?
If anyone could try to help me, that would be very great.
Thanks in advance, Sepp.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
1. the delta files will contain the document of the current pipeline stage if you put tracked=true; that way you can see the variables stored in the document (debugging)
2. using xslt you can merge files (XslTransform pipeline stage)
Hope it helps, Jan
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
1. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but although I added "tracked=true" to my pipeline, there is still no change in the delta files. Still I only get "Dummy" or some cryptic-characters.
2. How can I merge files using Xslt?
Thanks in advance,
Sepp

Thanks for your reply, but I still have problems:
