Publish XML compare reports for identifying differences between any 2 releases of ChangeMan ZMF, such as 7.1 (or 6.1) as compared to 6.1 (or 5.6, 5.5 or 5.3), even to find differences between 2 patch levels (such as ChangeMan ZMF version 7.1.3 versus version 7.1.3.1).
After completing the previous lessons in this course, it will be clear that the XML services in ChangeMan ZMF are an extremely powerful set of functions. But it will also be clear that there are quite a few challenges (missing features, etc) to use these XML services successfully.
To actually start using the XML services, probably the biggest challenge is to become aware (and learn how to use) each of the available XML services.
This lesson starts with providing a functional overview of all available XML services, with an overview organised corresponding to the major ChangeMan ZMF concepts like administration, packages and components. Afterwards some special XML services (utilities and transfer facilities) are explained.
This lesson starts with an historical overview of where the XML services in ChangeMan ZMF originate from, after which some basic concepts of XML in general are explained.
The lesson then explains of how the use of XML is implemented in ChangeMan ZMF via its SERXML-clients, and how each XML service can be narrowed down to a common anatomy.
Learning is the process of acquiring knowledge or skill through study, experience or teaching. It is a process that depends on experience and leads to changes in behavior. By learning about a common approach to implementing and using ChangeMan ZMF individuals can contribute effectively to ongoing improvement programs.
