    Default The anatomy of a XmlPackage, possible to output xml?

    Please tell me if I got these xmlpackages down right.

    1. xml packages are called throughout the codebase
    2. the consit of:
    queries that are all run
    xml transforms that take the results from the query, and output using the data from the query + appconfig + resource string data.

    Is there more to it?


    Is it possible to VIEW the resulting XML from the package for debugging?


    To create your own package, do you need the source code?

    Default

    You can set the XmlPackage.DumpTransform AppConfig to true and the XML output generated by XML packages will be displayed on site pages, and dumped to a temp file in the /images folder (so make sure you have write permissions set).

    It does not require source code to add a new XML Package, but it does make it much easier so you can see what all of the XSLT functions do exactly.
