Webgen (tm) Data File
The Webgen (tm) compiler uses data file exported as a merge file as input
to generate HTML pages.
The data file should be produced by exporting a database using
the "Merge" data format.
The exported data file must contain the following fields:
- serialNumber
- a unique serial number for each record in the database. This
field is used to identfy the data record and all the pages
it generates.
- templateType
- the exact name of a Leaf Template
which will be used to process the record.
All other fields of the database are translated into
TCL variables so they may be accessed freely in the
Leaf Template which generates the page.
Order doesn't matter at all in the exporting process, since the
Merge data file format encodes the header order in the file.
