Example of the XML in a snapshot

A snapshot is an .xml file that contains a list of all the objects in the map and their revision numbers. This list includes all the dependencies of the map.

Note: You cannot preview the XML for a snapshot in IXIA CCMS Web, but you can in IXIA CCMS Desktop. This example shows how snapshots work and the map information that they record.

Example XML for a map

This example assumes that you want to create a snapshot of the map CCMS User Guide, which contains a topic and a submap. The following code shows the XML for the map:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE bookmap PUBLIC "-//IXIA//DTD DITA Map for Release Management//EN" "IxiaMap-releasemanagement.dtd">
<bookmap id="ddp1441205293768" xml:lang="en-us">
	<title>CCMS User Guide</title>
	<containerref href="kiy1441205259960.ditamap"/>
	<chapter keyref="bhi1441205335829"/>
	<chapter format="ditamap" keyref="dsi1441206564020"/>
</bookmap>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE bookmap PUBLIC "-//IXIA//DTD IXIA DITA Map//EN" "IxiaMap.dtd">
<bookmap id="ddp1441205293768" xml:lang="en-us">
    <title>CCMS User Guide</title>
    <chapter href="bhi1441205335829.xml"/>
    <chapter format="ditamap" href="dsi1441206564020.ditamap"/>
</bookmap>

Example XML for a snapshot

The code below shows the XML contents of the snapshot file created for the CCMS User Guide map.

The topic bhi1441205335829.xml references an image and a referable-content object, which are both listed in the snapshot. And the objects in the submap (a task that also references an image) are also listed in the snapshot.
