[xsde-users] Utilizing Inhertied String Classes

[Jonathan Haws]

Borus, Ivan,
Thanks for the info. I am more of a C programmer, so C++ strings are a little foreign to me. Thanks for the tip. Having a constructor would be nice, but the assign method is just as easy.

Thanks!
Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Yes, Ivan's suggestion is probably the best way to do it currently.

The reason we don't generate any extra constructors for types like
your ipaddr is because it would require C++ exception support, which
is optional in XSD/e.

However, seeing that there is no reason this can't be done when C++
exceptions are enabled and also seeing that it is an often-requested
feature, we will add an option in the next release of XSD/e to generate
these "initialization" constructors, so that you will be able to write:

ipaddr ip ("10.0.0.1");
