1.6 XML in CHPS
Configuration Focal Points must use XML to manage and define most of the configuration information used in CHPS, which control almost all aspects of operations.
At this point, you may be wondering why XML was chosen for CHPS.
Instructions: View the presentation below for more information on the benefits of XML.
XML Schemas
XML is the most common tool for data transmissions between all sorts of applications. The XML language (itself) has no predefined tags; however, each XML configuration in CHPS adheres to an XML Schema Definition (XSD).
XSD is the current standard schema language for all XML documents and data. XSD enables programmers to define the structure and data types for XML documents.
