Download Properties File

Download Properties File

The download file,
download.xml
, contains a list of databases that you can use as a default list when you run the Download Manager on the command line. Before you download one or more reference databases on the command line, verify that the
download.xml
file lists the databases that you need. Add or delete reference databases from the
download.xml
file if necessary.
Find the file in the directory to which you saved the download tool client application. When you download reference databases through the client application, the Download Manager creates a
download.xml
file in the application directory if one does not exist there.

Download File Example

The download file lists each country for which you want to download data and the name of the database that you require in the country. The file lists the country and database name in pairs. If you download more than one database for a country, the file repeats the country name for each database. The download file also contains a time stamp that shows the time when you last updated the download list.
The following example shows the XML structure of a
download.xml
file for version 5.x reference data files:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <FiletoDownloadQueue> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>United States</countryName> <fileName>DB5_USA5FC_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>United States</countryName> <fileName>DB5_USA5BI_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>France</countryName> <fileName>DB5_FRA5BI_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>France</countryName> <fileName>DB5_FRA5FC_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>Germany</countryName> <fileName>DB5_DEU5FC_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <DlFileStructure> <countryName>United Kingdom</countryName> <fileName>DB5_GBR5FC_131101.zip</fileName> </DlFileStructure> <Created>2014/07/27 16:31:42</Created> </FiletoDownloadQueue>
The
download.xml
file above lists the following countries and files:
  • United States. Batch and interactive database and fast completion database.
  • France. Batch and interactive database and fast completion database.
  • Germany. Fast completion database.
  • United Kingdom. Fast completion database.
