Like the XSD standard specification, we
do not intend to provide any APIs for DFDL standard.. It is implementation
specific..

Policy Driven DFDL?
Sent by:

DFDL "the standard" says nothing about how to
do this today. The way an implementation applies value bindings to external
variables is not defined by the standard. Basically, nothing about APIs
for driving a DFDL processor is mentioned in the standard.
What you suggest is an interesting mechanism especially for when there
are many such variables and calling an API function to set them each is
burdensome.

Suppose you have an XSLT stylesheet with a bunch of global
variables. Suppose that the value of those variables must be determined
outside of the XSLT. How do you get the values into it? You
might use parameters, and pass in the values when you call the transform()
function in your code. But you could also use the document() function
from within XSLT, read in an XML “policy” file that has all the values,
then store the values in the variables. You might call this approach
policy driven XSLT.
Can we do policy driven DFDL? Yes, I know that we
have parameters, but is there a way to read in a “policy” file (whether
XML or not), read the values, then set the variables to those values?
TIA
