[xsd-users] using xsd in community applications

[Jos van den Oever]

Hello Boris,

I've discovered xsd today and I really like it. The wait for such a
library for Free Software was long but I'm glad it's there. I've tried
my hand at a simple version of this functionality in the past and
found that it is not trivial at all, so my respect for your
achievement is great.

The documentation is pretty extensive, but as a novice with the
library I did have some startup difficulties in constructing and
serializing objects. I've attached an archive with the steps that I
took in extending the example to the functionality I wanted.

I've also written about the experience here:
http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/2223

I'm sure you like feedback so here are a few suggestions for features
that would be useful for the project I'm working on:
- disabling unneeded (de)serialization options
- no #include but code directly in the header so other developers and
especially testers do not need to install xsd themselves

Basically, anything that reduces binary size is welcome, since the
ease of use of xsd does come at a price in code size.

Still overall very cool and a great timesaver.

Cheers,
Jos
