ReadNested

Processes embedded data with the specified representation.

This function is used as the I/O expression of the element to contain the data to be read. Specifying this function will cause the data normally read for this element to be processed using the representation of the structure from which this element inherits. Used this to handle mapping of embedded data of a different representation.

You may use this function in multiple map elements in order to read multiple files. You may not however nest the use of this function. In other words, if a map element contains an I/O expression, no subordinate map element may contain an I/O expression.

This function can only be used in the IO/Database tab.

Information noteNote: ReadNested expressions are not supported on looping elements.
