For more information on the C++/Tree mapping +customization see the C++/Tree Mapping Customization Guide[2]. + +[1] http://www.boost.org +[2] http://wiki.codesynthesis.com/Tree/Customization_guide + +The example consists of the following files: + +calendar.xsd + XML Schema definition for a simple calendar format. + +calendar.xml + Sample XML instance document. + +xml-schema.hxx + C++ types for XML Schema built-in types. + + This header file is generated by the XSD compiler in the + --generate-xml-schema mode using the following command line: + + xsd cxx-tree --generate-xml-schema --custom-type date \ + --hxx-epilogue '#include "xml-schema-custom.hxx"' xml-schema.xsd + + The --custom-type option is used to customize the xsd:date type. + +calendar.hxx +calendar.ixx +calendar.cxx + C++ types that represent the given vocabulary and a set of parsing + functions that convert XML instance documents to a tree-like in-memory + object model. + + These files are generated by the XSD compiler from calendar.xsd using the + following command line: + + xsd cxx-tree --extern-xml-schema xml-schema.xsd calendar.xsd + + The --extern-xml-schema option is used to include xml-schema.hxx. + +xml-schema-custom.hxx + Header file which defines our own xml_schema::date class. It is + included at the end of xml-schema.hxx using the --hxx-epilogue + option. + +xml-schema-custom.cxx + Source file which contains the implementation of our xml_schema:date + class. + +driver.cxx + Driver for the example. It first calls one of the parsing functions + that constructs the object model from the input file. It then prints + the calendar events to STDERR. + +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++ -DXSD_CXX11 -c calendar.cxx +c++ -DXSD_CXX11 -c xml-schema-custom.cxx +c++ -DXSD_CXX11 -c driver.cxx +c++ -o driver driver.o calendar.o xml-schema-custom.o -lxerces-c + +Note that we need to define the XSD_CXX11 preprocessor macro since the +source code includes libxsd headers directly. + +To run the example on the sample XML instance document execute: + +./driver calendar.xml |
