Let's suppose that you have an XML document and you need to process its data in a compiling language, such as C or C++. In such a case, you would have to create a program that would automatically parse the requested documents, basing on their structure.
XSD from CodeSynthesis comes to help the programmer work with XML data structures by automating the process of creation of code by creating the required C++ classes from an XML instance specification file.
By using CodeSynthesis XSD, you can easily create programs that work directly
Abstract
Mapping XML Schemas to class definitions and relational schemas allows for seamless marshaling and unmarshaling of an object's state to and from XML documents. W3C XML Schemas provide a rich set of datatypes and validity rules, both built-in, and user definable. It is possible to map data structures defined in a Schema document to data structures in object oriented languages and relational databases. This paper presents approaches to automating such mapping.
In simple cases, a Schema document can be generated based on a class definition,
Introduction
This specification defines the XML Linking Language (XLink), which allows elements to be inserted into XML documents in order to create and describe Link between resources.
XLink provides a framework for creating both basic unidirectional links and more complex linking structures. It allows XML documents to:
*
Assert linking relationships among more than two resources
*
Associate metadata with a link
*
Express links that reside in a location separate from the linked resources
An important application of XLink is in
The computing press has found a new savior for the ills that afflict computing and the web: XML. XML is new, it's exciting, and it's got to be good, because the specification for it looks indecipherable. XML's hype level has already drawn fire from some quarters, from those accusing it of 'balkanizing the web' or of increasing the load on an already strained Internet. Most important, many developers are wondering why exactly they need to learn yet another language.
XML's set of tools allows developers to create web pages - and much more. XML allows
