Respected Sir,

How does smooks framework  decides, that in place of <?TEMPLATE-SPLIT-PI?>
which template to call.

Lets say below in template section part of smoooksConfig file.

<ftl:freemarker applyOnElement="catalog">
        <ftl:template><!--<#ftl >author,title,genre<?TEMPLATE-SPLIT-PI?>
                            -->
        </ftl:template>
    </ftl:freemarker>
    <ftl:freemarker applyOnElement="book">
        <ftl:template>
            <!-- <#ftl >
${book.author},${.vars["book"].title},${.vars["book"].genre} -->
        </ftl:template>
        <param name="quote">"</param>
        <param name="includeFieldNames">true</param>
        <param name="csvFields">author,title,genre</param>
        <param name="seperator">,</param>
        <param name="messageType">CSV</param>
        <param name="templateDataProvider">input</param>
    </ftl:freemarker>
<ftl:freemarker applyOnElement="books">
        <ftl:template>
            <!-- <#ftl >
${books.name1},${.vars["books"].name2},${.vars["books"].name3} -->
        </ftl:template>
     </ftl:freemarker>

So in smoooksConfig above, in place of <?TEMPLATE-SPLIT-PI?> which template
will be called

1)

    <ftl:freemarker applyOnElement="book">
            <ftl:template>
Or

2)

    <ftl:freemarker applyOnElement="books">
            <ftl:template>

I am new to smooks.
Using it to parse large xml file in wso2.
Went through many links like below, but could not get this concept.
