+This is a "Hello, world!" example that shows how to use the
+C++/Parser mapping to parse XML instance documents.
+
+The example consists of the following files:
+
+hello.xsd
+ XML Schema which describes "hello" instance documents.
+
+hello.xml
+ Sample XML instance document.
+
+hello-pskel.hxx
+hello-pskel.cxx
+ Parser skeletons generated by the XSD compiler from hello.xsd using the
+ following command line:
+
+ xsd cxx-parser hello.xsd
+
+ Or if using Expat instead of Xerces-C++ as the underlying XML parser:
+
+ xsd cxx-parser --xml-parser=expat hello.xsd
+
+driver.cxx
+ A parser implementation and a driver for the example. The
+ parser implementation simply prints the data to STDERR.
+ The driver first constructs a parser instance from the
+ parser implementation mentioned above and a couple of
+ predefined parsers for the XML Schema built-in types.
+ In then invokes this parser instance to parse the input
+ file.
+
+To compile and link the example manually from the command line we can use
+the following commands (replace 'c++' with your C++ compiler name):
+
+c++ -c hello-pskel.cxx
+c++ -c driver.cxx
+c++ -o driver driver.o hello-pskel.o -lxerces-c
+
+Or if using Expat as the underlying XML parser:
+
+c++ -o driver driver.o hello-pskel.o -lexpat
+
+To run the example on the sample XML instance document execute:
+
+./driver hello.xml
