Maps define input and output specifications and mapping rules for data transformation.
Building maps
Multi-platform maps
You can compile a map to run on multiple platforms, for example, on Microsoft™ Windows™, and Linux™. At run time, HCL Link runs the appropriate version of the map for the platform.

    - Including a static input file in a compiled map
      You can include a static input file in a compiled map to reduce processing overhead in maps that run multiple times.
    - Building a map
      Building a map compiles it into an executable map.
    - Rebuilding a map that has changed
    - Schema errors
    - Map build analysis errors

- Schemas
  Use the schema designer to define, modify, and view schemas. A schema describes the syntax, structure, and semantics of your data.
- Connections and Actions
  This documentation describes connections and actions.
- Files
  Files are used in various places within HCL Link. HCL Link allows files to be uploaded to the HCL Linkserver.

Multi-platform maps

You can compile a map to run on multiple platforms, for example, on Microsoft™ Windows™, and Linux™. At run time, HCL Link runs the appropriate version of the map for the platform.

In Design Studio, click Window > Preferences > Link > Map > Build Options to select the platforms that you want your maps to support. Apply saves your choices. OK saves your choices and closes the window.

When you build maps with Map > Build or Map > Build All, the compiled maps support your selected platforms.
