# placement

Deprecated as of DirXML 2.0 - use DirXMLScript <do-set-op-dest-dn>.

<placement> is used to specify the distinguished name for an object that is about to be created and match the selection criteria for the enclosing <placement-rule>.

The dn is generated by concatenating together in order the text and the text substitutions generated by the enclosed token elements. Any leading or trailing whitespace is removed unless it was enclosed by a CDATA section.

Example

See <placement-rules>
