Introduction
- An XSD schema is provided for JADE that represents the configuration elements available for JADE operations.
- The schema explains the hierarchy of configuration elements and element attributes such as mandatory/optional, repeatable, data types etc.
Status of Documentation
- The Parameter Reference explains the structure of configuration elements that is intended for future YADE releases.
- FEATURE AVAILABILITY STARTING FROM RELEASE 1.11
- YADE shifts from plain text configuration files (.ini format) to XML Configuration files.
- For releases 1.9 and 1.10 the plain text configuration files are maintained.
- For releases 1.11 and later XML Configuration will be available as documented.
- YADE releases correspond to the following XSD schema file versions:
- YADE releases 1.9 up to 1.11 use https://www.sos-berlin.com/schema/yade/YADE_configuration_v1.0.xsd
- YADE releases 1.12, 1.13, JS7 use https://www.sos-berlin.com/schema/yade/YADE_configuration_v1.12.xsd
- The Parameter Reference for releases 1.10 and older is available for reference.
- The Parameter Mapping is intended for users of YADE releases before 1.11 who want to benefit from the Parameter Reference documentation.
- Mapping tables assist to identify XML configuration elements and plain text configuration items (.ini format).
- The XML Editor is schema-aware and can be used to create valid XML configurations.
- The YADE - User Manual is available and under continuous extension.

XSD Schema Structure
The configuration elements in the JADE XSD schema are divided into three main groupings:
- Fragment Parameters
- The Fragments refer to that part of the configuration that describes how the transfer is to be carried out – i.e. per FTP proxy.
- At least a minimum set of Fragments parameters has to be provided.
- Profile Parameters
- The Profiles part of the configuration describes what is to be done – i.e. the operations involved, such as copy from source A to target B.
- At least a minimum set of Profiles parameters has to be provided.
- General Parameters
- The General configuration options mainly refer to background transfer features. The most important of these are the JADE Background Service, the Credential Store and logging.
- The specification of General configuration parameters is optional.
