ICS.runTag

Calls an XML tag from within a Java program.

Syntax

public String 
runTag(String sTag, 
       FTValList vIn);

Parameters

sTag

Name of the XML tag to invoke. The XML tag must be a singleton, and must not expect any nested argument tags. Do not specify any built-in XML tags, such as CSVAR.

vIn

A list containing any name/value pairs you are passing as arguments to the tag specified in sTag.

Description

Use runTag to call an XML tag from within a Java program. To see if the XML tag ran properly, examine the value of errno by calling GetErrno .

Returns

The string that would normally be output by the XML tag. Most XML tags do not return any output, so runTag usually returns NULL.

Example

The Content Server XML tag OBJECT.SET expects the following three arguments:

• NAME

• FIELD

• VALUE

The following Java code calls OBJECT.SET, passing values for those three arguments:

FTValList args = new FTValList();
String output = null;

args.setValString("NAME","obj1");
args.setValString("FIELD","type_char");
args.setValString("VALUE", "c100");

output = cs.runTag("OBJECT.SET", args);
