    In general an explicit group is one where you have to explicitly define its boundaries and repetition count.  An implicit group is one where you do not (the fact of its existence is 'implied').

    Thank-you.

    I want PI regarding difference between maps in which two different type trees used with one implicit group, one explicit group. whether result of two maps will be same or different.

     

    Thanks for your reply paul,

    Hai paul,

    Could you please provide testcase regarding both properties implicit and explicit which makes difference.

     

    Thanks

    In one data scenario, using an Explicit group would be most efficient.  In another the Implicit group may be required to validate the data.

    Choosing one or the other is a matter of what is required to validate the data.  Once the group is chosen, and the input validates successfully, then the mapping can begin.

    There is no map that would produce different output, based on Explicit/Implicit differences in the Typetree, that would not then be considered 'wrong' design for the input Typetree.  The input Typetree either validates the data or it doesn't.  It's as simple as that.

    Is this clearer to you now?

    Thank-you.

    Paul.
