    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.ibm.com/2008/ccl/Mapping msl.xsd"
    IBM Graphical Data Mapper Map Specification Language, "msl" Version: 1050

    While I can see that this is internal stuff, I am currently looking for documents, tutorials and courses that cater for it
    For the moment, I found two sources + IBM Knowledge Base
    https://ibm-learning-skills-dev.github.io/ibm-learning-skills-dev.github.io/education/files/wm6661course.pdf
    https://github.com/ot4i

    My goal is to create *.map without the GDM.
    Documentation that explains the meaning and usage of the elements specified in the *.xsd is in particular very welcome.

    Hi Matthias,

    The XML schema for the IBM Graphical Data Mapper Map Specification Language, "MSL" is shipped so that you can generate JAXB model etc for programatically generating .map as noted in this topic,  Creating a message map programmatically.

    However there is no formal documentation or tutorials on generation MSL, so you would need to construct an example map using the Graphical Data Map editor, save and then review the MSL in that .map.

    You might want to review this project that utilises MSL for generating MSL maps files from various input formats describing a transformation, IBMGraphicalDataMapGenerator.
