Subject: [xsd-users] About usage of code synthesis

Dear Editor:
    I know code synthesis from google, and I think it's a wonderful tool to bind xml schema and c++.


   when I read the "README", I find a term (1.b) that "You created a library that uses the XSD generated code and the XSD runtime library to access information in XML instance documents. You did not add to the library any other useful code that uses the XSD generated code or the XSD runtime library (neither section 2.b nor 2.c is satisfied)....  This scenario does not fall under this FLOSS Exception (neither section 2.b nor 2.c is satisfied). You created the library for the sole purpose of making the XSD generated code and the XSD runtime library available to your proprietary application."


   Does this term means that 
       (1) If I just compile the code generated by code synthesis to library without any changes
       (2) I just link the library from step (1) to my application
   , then I can use the code with BSD license (no charge) and don't need to worry about GPL license ?


   Yours, sincerely


Xiaolong Cheng

No, it says exactly opposite: you cannot package the generated code for
the sole purpose of relicensing it under a more permissive license. You
have to add something useful on top of the generate code to such a library
in order to be able to do that.

Subject: [xsd-users] Question on XSD C++/Tree Mapping User Manual
Message-ID: <B97C022086E6764A84A7D36DCB8570DED4DE72@EXCHSVR03.atis.org>

In the XSD C++/Tree Mapping User Manual section 5.1 there is a code fragment that begins:

"  std::auto_ptr<type> r (root (
    "root.xml",
     xml_schema::flags::keep_dom |
     xml_schema::flags::dont_initialize));

  DOMNode* n = root->_node ();
  assert (n->getNodeType () == DOMNode::ELEMENT_NODE);
...etc..."

Should the declaration of n in fact read:
DOMNode* n = r ->_node ();

?


Regards

Iain

Yes, that's correct. I've fixed this, thanks for the report!

Thanks.

I actually also noticed another problem in the same document:
"2.9.1 Element Types

The generation of element types is requested with the --generate-element-map option."

I think you mean "...with the --generate-element-type option."

Iain

Yes, you are right. Fixed that one as well, thanks!
