HiI like the feature, this is something, I was dreaming about, as we archive old xml files in zip files and importing them this way would easy the work quite well.
It does not work perfecktly as my test is failing on some archives with
Command: CREATE DB ZipTest D:\var\TICEReports\aws1\ziptest
Error: "..." (Line 1): The processing instruction target matching "[xX][mM][lL]" is not allowed.
But I do not report this as bug until it is really published as supported feature (to know, what is really expected behaviour.
Another wish for importing: sometime I have hundreds of xml files and some might be broken xml documents. Currently import always fails. It would be great to have an option "ignore invalid documents" which would allow quick import and which would print out file names of those invalid documents.
PS: We use for archiving command line python utility
Dalimil, which we wrote and published it under BSD Lincense. Still in beta phase, but is it considered safe and usable.
