Method: FlattenDTDOrSchema (sOutputPath as String, nOutputPathDialogAction as SPYDialogAction)

Parameters

sOutputPath

The file path for the newly generated file.

nOutputPathDialogAction

Defines the dialog interaction for this call.

Description

FlattenDTDOrSchema takes an existing DTD or schema, generates a flattened file, and saves the generated file at the specified location. In the case of DTDs, flattening removes parameter entities and produces a single DTD from a collection of modules; sections marked IGNORE are suppressed and unused parameter entities are deleted. When an XML Schema is flattened, (i) the components of all included schemas are added as global components of the active schema, and (ii) included schemas are deleted.
