Import Example
The import folder is installed in the install_dir\examples\ dsgnstud\ttmaker
folder. It contains files that can be used to create a Type Tree Maker document file
from a file that contains metadata. Metadata is data about data; it defines the
syntax, structure, and semantic rules of data. A type tree is a graphical
representation of metadata. The document file that is used by the Type Tree
Maker is metadata in a textual form.
The type tree that defines the document file is a schema. It defines data about
metadata. The type tree that defines the input metadata is a schema too; it
defines the metadata used to generate the document file.
A map whose purpose is to update rows in a database table with data from
another data file might then use the resulting type tree.
