The simulation package will nightly generate an XML file with information needed for the SIMBUILD flash map. The objects in the XML file will be those that are supposed to appear on the map, i.e. those that have the on_map_p attribute set to true. The file will only be regenerated if the contents of the file (i.e. the map objects) have changed since last time the file was generated. The object attributes stored in the XML file will be object id, name, url, thumbnail url, and description. To activate this feature you need to specify the location of the XML file by visiting the configuration page of the package (start at the index page) and setting the MapXMLFilePath parameter. You may view the XML file from a link on the object list page and you may also manually trigger the recreation of the XML file from there. On the object list page you may sign up for notifications for the Map XML file. You will then be notified by email everytime the XML file is regenerated (because something has changed) or everytime there is a problem generating the XML file.
