XML Document

An org.w3c.dom.Document value that represents the content to write to the file.

CharSet

(Optional) A Character Set (File Utilities) value that represents the character set that the file uses. The following values are valid:

  • Big_Five

  • GB_2312

  • ISO_8859_1

  • ISO_8859_2

The default is UTF_8. If you create a com.adobe.livecycle.fileutils.CharSet variable, you must select Find Type in the Type list and search for the CharSet type.

Make Unique

A boolean value that specifies whether the name of the file is to be made unique. A value of True indicates that the file name be made unique, and a value of False indicates that the file name is not unique. The default is False. To specify the literal value of True, select Make Unique. To specify the literal value of False, deselect Make Unique.

The following behavior occurs if a file exists with the same file name that is specified for the new file:

  • If Make Unique is set to true, an index is appended to the name of the file that is created. The index distinguishes the new file from the existing file.

  • If Make Unique is set to false, the value of the Over Write property determines the behavior:

    • if Over Write is set to true, the existing file is overwritten with the new file.

    • If Over Write is set to false, an exception is thrown.

Over Write

A boolean value that specifies whether to replace a file of the same name provided for Pathname Pattern if it exists. A value of True indicates that the file is replaced, and a value of False indicates that the file is not replaced. The default is False. To specify the literal value of True, select Over Write. To specify the literal value of False, deselect Over Write.

Note: An exception is thrown when a file exists with the same name that is specified for the new file, Over Write is set to false, and Make Unique is set to false.
