Example: retrieving Xoom report files

In the following example, we have defined a query that can be used to retrieve all report and transformations files from the Xoom folder. Note the content-storage="embedded" attribute.

<xpi:query name="Xoom Report Files">
  <Files>
    <File base-directory="? ${Xoom.InstallDirectory} + '/Reports'"
          filter="*.xsl" content-storage="embedded"/>
  </Files>
</xpi:query>

Here is an extract from the resulting XoomXML:

 <Files>
    <File xoom:id="File[? ${Xoom.InstallDirectory} + '/Reports'|ActiveScheduleAgentsReport.xsl]">
      <RelativePath>ActiveScheduleAgentsReport.xsl</RelativePath>
      <BaseDirectory>? ${Xoom.InstallDirectory} + '/Reports'</BaseDirectory>
      <Name>ActiveScheduleAgentsReport.xsl</Name>
      <LocalPath>C:\Program Files (x86)\Zany Ants\Xoom\Reports\ActiveScheduleAgentsReport.xsl</LocalPath>
      <Size>7771</Size>
      <CreationTime>2016-05-09T11:36:00</CreationTime>
      <LastWriteTime>2016-05-09T11:36:00</LastWriteTime>
      <Checksum algorithm="sha1">54be55671ccf4eda59d01d7fc9085b22987da28e</Checksum>
      <Version />
      <Extension>xsl</Extension>
      <Content encoding="x-gzip64">H4sIAAAAAAAEAN1ZW2…</Content>
    </File>
…

In addition to file information, there is an additional Content element that contains the zipped and embedded file information. The encoding attribute specifies the compression algorithm used, in this case x-gzip64.
