Hi all,

is it possible to map from one doctype to two different Adabas files? If so,
how? How are queries handled in this case? As fas as I see, XPath
queries are used to select data from the mapped Adabas file, but in case of
two mapped files in one doctype I don’t know how this should work - if it
works at all. Like: Query only selects data from one file, which records get mixed in from the other file - all of them?

Any help appreciated,
Johann

I would suggest this will not work and the reason is that if you define a schema with two Adabas files - how would Tamino join them together? I can’t see how when you cannot specify a query to specify the “join”. The result is that the returning document is two disjoined Adabas records.

I would certainly define two doctypes: one for each Adabas file and query each independantly and perform the “joining” on the application side.

Unless someone knows a clever way to do this??
