Hi Boris ,
    I'm a newbie here and trying to parse the bpmn xsd files by xsdcxx.
here is my compile cmd:
xsdcxx cxx-parser --xml-parser expat --generate-polymorphic
--generate-print-impl --generate-test-driver --root-element-first ../*.xsd

Howerver , it seems that the test driver just print very top lines of the
xml file. does it mean the test driver is not fully testable or something
i did is wrong. hope you can shed some light on this.


Thanks,
--Qi

I see you enabled support for polymorphism. The test driver and the
sample implementation don't take this into account so what you most
likely see is the data from the base type but not from derived.

You can "improve" the sample implementation (it is a sample after all)
to support polymorphism as shown in the 'polymorphism' example in the
examples/cxx/parser/ directory.

Message-ID: <9F9957734EB81F4D9E11834D98B9EA3561FED383A5@NRCCENMB1.nrc.ca>


I wanted to split a long schema file into more manageable sub-sections.
My platform is Win7-64, with Visual Studio 2009.

This is general format of my top-level schema, and one of the included files.

++++++++++++++++++ Top Level +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

   <!-- Define a 'BlowView Definition' file in terms of its one common element -->

   <xsd:element name="ParmeshDefinition" type="ParmeshDefinition" substitutionGroup="DefinitionFile" />

      </xsd:complexContent>
   </xsd:complexType>

...

</xsd:schema>

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The xsd.exe reads this set of file OK, and the 'sample driver' contains parser commands for all the sub-components in the 'included' schema (so it must be reading both parts).
(Here is the batch file that I used to run xsd.exe)

++++++++++++++++++++++
"C:\Program Files (x86)\CodeSynthesis XSD 3.3\bin\xsd.exe" cxx-parser --prologue "// Copyright NRC" --generate-polymorphic --root-element-last --generate-print-impl --generate-test-driver --force-overwrite definitionschema.xsd
++++++++++++++++++++++

But...
Code is not generated for the second file.
I have a "definitionschema-pskel.hxx/cxx file, and the header has a line which  includes a "parmeshschema-pskel.hxx" file (similarly for the pimpl files), but there are NO parmeshschema* files generated.

Am I doing something wrong? Or, is this a bug?

Thanks!

You need to compile the second schema file as well (probably without 
--generate-test-driver).

Also note that the generated test driver and the sample implementation
don't take into account polymorphism. See this recent post for details:

Right, in the file-per-schema mode each schema must be compiled separately.

Right, parmeshschema.xsd references DefinitionFile but does not include its
definition. Note that including definitionschema.xsd in parmeshschema.xsd
would create a circular dependency between the two. While valid in XML Schema
and XSD can handle some cases (while for others you will need the file-per-
type mode), this is, IMO, bad design and I wouldn't recommend it.

Right, there is no difference.

Yes, the file-per-type mode will do what you want at the expense of all
the files and compilation times. If you decide to go this route, you may
find the --file-list* options useful.

Calling the document constructor is only a small part of supporting
polymorphism. You will also need to create parser maps, etc. See the
'polymorphism' example for details.


> Any better suggestions?

I would suggest that you get rid of the mutual dependency between
your schemas and then use the file-per-schema mode.

Hello Boris,

Thanks a lot for prompt reply.
I was able to solve the problem by adding this attributes to the root tag
"zoo".

 xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="zoo.xsd"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace xml.xsd"

I overlooked this part because, I was using the same XML on server side
which is in Java. And it was being parsed correctly there.



Regards,
Deepak

Hi Boris,



I am using the latest version of xsd(ie 3.3.0). I generated c++ code for my xml schemas using it.But it seems to be ignoring the "anyAttribute" But in release notes of CodeSynthesis XSD 3.0.0 it is mentioned that it ll support anyAttribute. Is this support removed in 3.3.0 ?

The wildcard mapping needs to be explicitly enabled with the 
--generate-wildcard option. See Section 2.12, "Mapping for any and
anyAttribute" in the C++/Tree Mapping User Manual for this and other
requirements:

Hi Boris,
As you have mentioned I tried "dynamic_cast". But it didn't work,I also
found this,it says whatever you have mentioned is not correct.
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/typecasting/
pls check out "dynamic casting".

I ll send another mail clearly explaining my scenario with an example.

Thanks
Arul

No. I also don't see why we would need one.

It is possibly in C++ without @XmlSeeAlso:

Base& b = ...
Derived* d = dynamic_cast<Derived*> (&b);

if (d != 0)
{
  // b is Derived.
}
else
{
  // b is not Derived.
}
