XML Schema Definition for a Bulk Data Configuration File
The bulk configuration XML schema governs bulk configuration files. The bulk configuration files in turn govern bulk load data files that are processed by PSQL Bulk Load.
This schema, which is published at http://media.datadirect.com/download/docs/ns/bulk/BulkData.xsd, provides a foundation for any third party functionality to be built using this standard. Custom applications or tools that manage large amounts of data can employ this schema as a loosely-coupled PSQL Bulk Load across ODBC, JDBC, and ADO.NET APIs and across multiple platforms.
If you want to generate CSV data that can be consumed by PSQL Bulk Load, you must supply an XML Schema for your XML configuration file.
Each bulk operation generates an XML configuration file in UTF-8 format that describes the bulk data file produced. If the bulk data file cannot be created or does not comply with the schema described in the XML configuration file, an exception is thrown.
