PassDataAs Details

Attribute Details: PassDataAs

PassDataAs specifies how DataLayer XML data is passed into and out of a Plugin. "XmlDocument" will pass the data as an in-memory XML document object (Default). The data is added to the "CurrentData" property of the ServerObjects. "FileName" will pass the XML data with a file. There may be an input data file found in the ServerObjects.CurrentDataFile property and there will be an output filename in ServerObjects.ReturnedDataFile. These names include the fully qualified path. The default value is "XmlDocument". "XmlDocument" stores the data set in memory. Use "FileName" to reduce the amount of memory used when working with large data sets. With "FileName" the plugin can work with the data using Xml stream readers and writers.
