TRANSFERRING DATA FROM A SOURCE COMPLEX VARIABLE TO A TARGET COMPLEX VARIABLE

Abstract:

A source complex variable including source elements is provided. The source complex variable includes a first subset of the source elements and a second subset of the source elements. A target complex variable that includes the first subset of the source elements and does not include the second subset of the source elements is provided. A target schema of the target complex variable is provided. The target schema includes a description of the second subset of the source elements. New target elements are created in the target complex variable that correspond with the second subset of the source elements in the source complex variable. Data is transferred from the second subset of the source elements in the source complex variable to the new target elements in the target complex variable based on the description of the target schema.
