5.2. FreeMarker Templates

FreeMarker is a very powerful template engine. Smooks can use FreeMarker as a means of generating text-based content. This content can then be inserted into a message stream (this process is known as a fragment-based transformation). The process can also be used to split message fragments for subsequent routing to another process.

Set Smooks' FreeMarker templates by using the configuration namespace http://www.milyn.org/xsd/smooks/freemarker-1.1.xsd. Then, configure the XSD in an integrated development environment in order to begin using it.
