Enable CDAT encoding for Event Payload when configure Event Monitoring

In ACE/IIB if you add Event Load you do not have the option to set the Encoding for Event Payload as CDAT so for example if you select to the event payload to Environment root element and some of the Environment variable Names has spaces or invalid XML structure the event payload will fail since the Event Message Schema (ComplexType) expected XML so you can not parse the message and record & reply will fail save the data in the event monitoring database.

    Idea / RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to raise this enhancement request. We note that there are existing methods for serialising the actual message payload and storing this within the event, yet realise that when dealing with the Environment tree entries, there may be cases where the fieldnames selected in the Environment tree are in breach of XML syntax rules. Given this, we acknowledge that the product would benefit from having an alternate way of rendering these parts of the logical tree. ACE 12 provides a message assembly file type (with .mxml extension) which is used by our Flow Exerciser and Unit Testing features and this method of serialising the other trees which are not written to the wire (Environment/LocalEnvironment/ExceptionList) may be worth exploring for this requirement. Status of the idea is updated to Future Consideration.
