Reference of elements and attributes
<batch_settings>
The batch_settings element is the root element of the settings XML file. This element has no attributes and contains the batch_units element.
<batch_units>
This element contains other child nodes to set global parameters for all batch units and the sequence of batch_unit elements.
<log_document>
| Attributes |
| path | Used to set the path including the file name of the output log document. |
<options>
| Attributes |
| close_logdoc | If the attribute is true the log document is closed after the batch process. |
| close_xmlspy | For scheduled batch processing a value of true would close XMLSpy after completing the batch. |
| save_logdoc | True to save the log document automatically. |
| log_valid | If this attribute is set to false only invalid XML files will be reported. |
| timeout | Used to specify a timeout for the validation of each XML instance. |
| omit_time | The validation time for each file is not added to the log. This reduces the number of differences on comparing the log with a reference log. |
| omit_results | No detailed errors are reported in the log. |
| error_limit | Sets a limit for the number of reported errors for each file. Setting error_limit to 0 has the same effect as setting omit_results to true. |
