ACORD-MDM Mappers Library

The ACORD library implements the LA messaging standard used in the insurance industry. The MDM JavaBeans library creates components that transform flat XML representations of JavaBeans components to and from hierarchical XML files. The ACORD-MDM Mappers library contains Mappers that translate MDM JavaBeans XML files to ACORD LNA XML files and then back to output MDM JavaBeans XML files.

Before you run the Mappers, use the Developer tool to transform the MDM JavaBeans XML file to an output XML file. For more information about the MDM JavaBeans library, see MDM JavaBeans Library.

You can use the Developer tool to import and run the mappers as XMap objects.

The following table describes the files in the XMap directory of the ACORD-MDM Mappers library:

File Name	Description
ACORD_LNA_to_MDM_<version>.xml	Mapper that translates from an ACORD LNA file to an output MDM JavaBeans XML file with the Developer tool.
MDM_to_ACORD_LNA_<version>.xml	Mapper that translates from an output MDM JavaBeans XML file to an ACORD LNA file with the Developer tool.

The following table describes the folders in the ACORD-MDM Mappers directory of the ACORD-MDM Mappers library:

File Name	Description
ACORD_LNA_to_MDM	Folder with mapper files that translate from an ACORD LNA file to an output MDM JavaBeans XML file with the Developer tool. You cannot modify the mapper scripts after you import the files.
