Commenting on graphical connections

Comments can be added on individual graphical connections and on functions where the starting point is a constant.

In both cases, this is visualized as a line to a target node, either coming from a source node, or coming from a function icon.

The comment is inserted as a comment tag in the XSLT code that the graphical mapping is generating. To view the comments in the XSLT code, open the XSLT Editor tab. Comments in the XSLT code additionally show the author of the comment and the date and time when it was added.

Comments can be added, edited and deleted from:

  • Graphical connection lines in the graphical mapping modeler.
  • Function scope container, in the Function Editor.

When two connection lines are overlapping, you can select the Source Path of the connection from the comments dialog box. Then you can add, edit or delete a comment. This scenario happens when the target is connected to a source node and constant starting point. Or when there is more than one constant starting point that is connected to a single target node.
