KugarData element

The KugarData element defines a report's data source. The basic structure is a collection of rows and columns. This document does not define data types and their attributes. The report template defines column data type information.

The document creator can apply an XSL style sheet to an existing document to convert it to this format. If XSL is used, the creator can apply custom macros using XSL for column calculations, sorting, etc..

<!ELEMENT KugarData (Row*)>
<!ATTLIST KugarData
        Template      CDATA  #REQUIRED>

<!ELEMENT Row EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST Row
        level         CDATA  #REQUIRED
        col1          CDATA  #IMPLIED
        col2          CDATA  #IMPLIED
        ...           CDATA  #IMPLIED
        coln          CDATA  #IMPLIED>

Kugar data element

The KugarData element contains zero or more Row elements. A Row must contain one level attribute with a value corresponding to detail level in the template. Other attributes represent data columns.

The value of the Template attribute is the URL of the report template used to format the data.

The name of the attribute is the column name, and uses the format as given in the KugarData definition. The attribute name is used in the report template to bind the data to the report fields.
