Isomorphic and non-isomorphic simple mapping

The term "isomorphic" (as used here) means the following:

and

The mapping tools define all other COBOL language structure/XML instance document pairs as non-isomorphic structures.

Isomorphic simple mapping is a simple mapping of COBOL items and XML elements that have both of the following properties:

Isomorphic mapping can also exist between isomorphic subsets of otherwise non-isomorphic structures.

Non-isomorphic simple mapping is a simple mapping of COBOL items and XML elements belonging to XML documents and COBOL groups that are not identical in shape (non-isomorphic). Non-isomorphic mapping can also be created between non-isomorphic elements of isomorphic structures.

Mapping between non-isomorphic structures can be isomorphic if it maps corresponding elements of isomorphic subsets.

Both isomorphic and non-isomorphic simple mapping are supported for request and response mapping. For examples of isomorphic and non-isomorphic mapping in Isomorphic and non- isomorphic element mapping, see XML to COBOL mapping reference.
