Remarks

Call the cxExportTLToXML procedure to export tree list content to a file in XML format. This procedure additionally creates a stylesheet file (XSL) with the same name. The browser relies on this stylesheet to display the exported XML document properly.

The cxExportTLToXML procedure creates image files to display cell images as inline images in the output XML file. Use the cxExportGraphicClass constant to change the image container class for export image generation.

Code Example: Export a Tree List XML File

delphi
uses cxTLExportLink;
// ...
  cxExportTLToXML('Departments.xml', cxDBTreeList);
cpp
#include "cxTLExportLink.hpp"
// ...
  cxExportTLToXML("Departments.xml", cxDBTreeList);
