Instance import
Syntax
$xml.instanceImport(transient: false)
Description
Rereads an XML file that was created with the instanceExport() function and creates the objects contained in it and returns the root objects as the result.
Parameters
| File name | Type | Type Description | Mandatory | Default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
xml |
XML file (binary value) | The XML file from which objects are to be read in | Yes | - |
transient |
Truth value | Whether the object creation should be transient. If the persistent objects are created, the function must be called from a transaction context. | no | false |
context |
Object | The context object in which this import is carried out. The context can be used by instance resolvers, for example, to resolve local identifiers in their context. Typically, the context for an import is the container of the composition in which the exported object was located when the export was created. | no | null |
Return value
Type: Set of objects
The set of exported objects. Objects that were also exported because they were contained in composition references are not explicitly returned.
