Schema appinfo structures are automatically mapped on XOM properties when the name is equal to "http://www.ilog.com/rules/xml".

The following example shows how a simple appinfo is translated in the XOM.

Here is the schema:

<appinfo xmlns:irl="http://www.ilog.com/rules/xml">
   <irl:property name="property1">property1Value</irl:property>
</appinfo>

Here is the XOM representation:

property property1 "property1Value"

Appinfo as a Class Property

The following example demonstrates how to create class properties using appinfo. It maps a complex type book that has properties of bookRenderer and position.

Here is the schema:

<complexType name="book">
 <annotation>
  <appinfo xmlns:irl="http://www.ilog.com/rules/xml">
   <irl:property name="bookRenderer">Renderer1</irl:property>
   <irl:property name="position"> 
     <irl:property name="x">10</irl:property>
     <irl:property name="y">20</irl:property>
   </irl:property>
  </appinfo>
 </annotation>
 <sequence>
     <element name="ident"/>
     <element name="title"/>
 </sequence>
</complexType>

Here is the XOM representation:

class Book extends IlrXmlObject
{
   property bookRenderer "Renderer1"
   property position {
      x "10",
      y "20"
   }
  String ident;
  String title;
}

Appinfo as the Field Property

The following example demonstrates how to create field properties using appinfo. It maps a complex type book that has properties of bookRenderer and position to the field named ident.

Here is the schema:

<complexType name="book">
  <sequence>
     <element name="ident">
      <annotation>
        <appinfo xmlns:irl="http://www.ilog.com/rules/xml">
         <irl:property name="bookRenderer">Renderer1</irl:property>
         <irl:property name="position"> 
         <irl:property name="x">10</irl:property>
         <irl:property name="y">20</irl:property>
         </irl:property>
       </appinfo>
     <annotation>
    </element>
    <element name="title"/>
  </sequence>
</complexType>

Here is the XOM representation:

class Book extends IlrXmlObject
{
  String ident 
      property bookRenderer "Renderer1"
      property position {
        x "10",
        y "20"
      };
  String title;
}
