Loading a BTS Object Defined in XML

This section shows how to load a BTS object from an XML file in a data source. For detailed information about data sources, see section Data Sources.

All you have to do is create a data source using the default data source implementation defined by IltDefaultDataSource and pass the XML file to the parse method of the data source as shown below:

dataSource = new IltDefaultDataSource();
dataSource.parse("BTSXMLFile.xml");

Below is an example of a BTS object defined in XML format. For details about the XML elements used in this example, see Table 3.1, Elements in an XML Data File.
