# XmlConvStreamToStream

This program converts an input stream to an output stream using Java API calls in XML Export, and a template file. See Explore Conversion Options with the Sample Programs for more information on templates.

## Run XmlConvStreamToStream on Windows

To run XmlConvStreamToStream on Windows

1. In the `XmlConvStreamToStream.bat` file, set `INSTALL_DIR` to the Export SDK installation directory.

2. In the first line of the `XmlSampleConfig_nt.txt` file, specify the path to the template file used in the conversion. You can use the template files in the `install\xmlexport\programs\ini` directory, where `install` is the path name of the Export installation directory.

3. In the second line of the `XmlSampleConfig_nt.txt` file, specify the path to the directory `Export SDK\bin`.

4. Copy `XmlSampleConfig_nt.txt` to `XmlSampleConfig.txt`.

5. Run the batch file in the directory `install\javaapi\sample`. Type the following:

       XmlConvStreamToStream inputfile

   where:

   `inputfile` is the path and file name of the source file.

   The generated XML is output to the current DOS prompt.

## Run XmlConvStreamToStream on UNIX

To run XmlConvStreamToStream on UNIX

1. In the `XmlConvStreamToStream.csh` file, set `MKENV` to the platform on which you are running, either `_hpux11`, `_ilnx21`, `_rs6k43`, or `_ssol26`.

2. In the `XmlConvStreamToStream.csh` file, set `INSTALL_DIR` to the Export SDK installation directory.

3. In the first line of the `XmlSampleConfig_unix.txt` file, specify the path to the template file used in the conversion. You can use the template files in the `install/xmlexport/programs/ini` directory, where `install` is the path name of the Export installation directory.

4. In the second line of the `XmlSampleConfig_unix.txt` file, specify the path to the directory `Export SDK/bin`.

   NOTE: If you have copied the`XmlSampleConfig_unix.txt` and C shell file from a Windows system or edited the files on a Windows system, remove the carriage returns from these files. You can use a utility such as the ColdFusion function `stripcr()` (`http://www.macromedia.com`) to do this. This step is not required if the files are taken from the UNIX installation.

5. Copy `XmlSampleConfig_unix.txt` to `XmlSampleConfig.txt`.

6. Run the C shell file in the `install/javaapi/sample` directory. Type the following:

       ./XmlConvStreamToStream.csh inputfile

   where:

   `inputfile` is the path and file name of the source file.

   The generated XML is output to the current console (standard out).
