---|---|
Maximum Preview Size of Sample File (in KBytes) | When testing a Flat File Schema, this field specifies how many KBytes of data is displayed in the source pane - the left side of the Test tab. This field is useful when you have a large source data file and you need to only view the top portion of the file to design the Flat File Schema. This field does not affect the size of the file that is transformed when you click the Test icon in the Test tab. The entire source data file is transformed if the Maximum Size of Sample File (in KBytes) field is set to a large enough size to load the entire file. |
Maximum Size of Sample File (in KBytes) | When testing a Flat File Schema, this field limits the size in KBytes of the test data that is loaded into Studio for testing a Flat File Schema. The maximum supported sample data size is 2000 KBytes. If you specify a value greater than 2000 KBytes in this field, Studio resets the value to 2000 KBytes. |
Button or Option Label | Description |
---|---|
Kerberos Realm | Specifies the Kerberos realm. |
Kerberos Server Name | Specifies the Kerberos server name. |
KeyStore Password | Provides the password to access the keystore. |
KeyStore Path | Specifies the path to the local Java™ keystore. |
TrustStore Password | Provides the password to access the truststore. |
TrustStore Path | Specifies the path to the local Java truststore. |
SSL Protocol | Use the drop-down menu to specify the SSL Protocol. TLSv2 is the default and enables all SSL and TLS protocols (including TLSv1.2) for SSL negotiation. TLSv1.2 enables the SSL communication using the TLSv1.2 protocol only. |
Button or Check Box Label | Description |

Username | Studio uses this user name to log in to the Cast Iron® TIPs repository. |
Password | Studio uses this password to log in to the Cast Iron TIPs repository. |
URL | Specifies the URL to the Cast Iron Service Login.
Note: Do not modify
the default value.
|
Host Name | Specifies a proxy host if you choose to use one. |
Port | The proxy server port. By default, 8080. |
Button or Check Box Label | Description |
---|---|
Number of child node levels allocated in memory for the schema | Specifies the number of child node levels
that are allocated in memory for the XML Schema. The number of child
nodes allocated in the internal tree that stores the metadata of the
XML Schema in Studio.
Note: Specifying a large number of child node
levels can adversely affect the performance of Studio. The recommended
value for this preference is 6.
|
Number of recursive node levels | Specifies the number of recursive node levels
allowed and graphically displayed.
Note: Specifying a large number
of recursive node levels can adversely affect the performance of Studio.
The recommended value for this preference is 3.
|
Number of child node levels that are initially expanded when a schema is displayed graphically | Specifies the number of child node levels that are initially expanded when an XML Schema is displayed graphically. For example if this limit was set to 6 in the preferences and a variable was selected for the From Orchestration pane of the Map Inputs task contained 8 node levels (input/po/purchase/widgetId/price/discount/special/december), only the first 6 levels (input/po/purchase/widgetId/price/discount) would be displayed in the Map Inputs task. You can expand a child node manually, by clicking the + sign next to the unexpanded child node. Note: Specifying a large number of
child node levels can adversely affect the performance of Studio.
The recommended value for this preference is 4.
|
Number of child node levels allocated in memory for the substituted types of schema | Specifies the number of child node levels
that are allocated in memory for the substituted types of XML Schema.
The number of child nodes allocated in the internal tree that stores
the metadata of the substituted types of XML Schema in Studio. The
default value is 10. The minimum value is 4.
Note: Lowering this value
decreases the memory requirement for child node levels in Studio.

Check Box Label | Description |
---|---|
Backwards compatibility with pre-4.5 projects is not required | When checked, encrypts the password upon publishing. This is the default starting with the Cast Iron 4.5 release. Before the 4.5 release, passwords were symmetrically encoded. If you plan to have the current project send the password to pre-4.5 projects, clear the check box. This avoids errors when the password is consumed by pre-4.5 projects. |
