This package contains precompiled binaries of CodeSynthesis XSD, a
W3C XML Schema to C++ Data Binding compiler, built for Microsoft
Windows. For more information about XSD visit
http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/xsd/
This README file describes how to start using XSD in the Microsoft
Windows environment with Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1 (.NET 2003),
Microsoft Visual C++ 8 (Visual Studio 2005), and Microsoft Visual
C++ 9 (Visual Studio 2008).
Prerequisites
-------------
The XSD runtime library and the generated code depend on the Xerces-C++
XML parser which you can obtain from http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/.
You can also download precompiled Xerces-C++ libraries for Windows from
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/download.cgi
Environment
-----------
Before you can start building examples or your applications that use XSD
you need to set include, library and executable search paths in the Visual
C++ IDE and the System Environment.
1. Setting up Xerces-C++
First you need to set up Xerces-C++ include and library search paths.
If you already have Xerces-C++ set up in your development environment,
you can skip to the next step. Here we assume that your Xerces-C++ path
is C:\projects\xerces-c-x.y.z. If you have Xerces-C++ in a different
place you will need to adjust the paths below accordingly.
a) In the Visual C++ IDE, select "Tools"/"Options"/"Projects"/"VC++
Directories".
Then, in the "Show directories for" field, select "Include files" and
create a new entry with the value "C:\projects\xerces-c-x.y.z\include".
After that, in the "Show directories for" field, select "Library files"
and create a new entry with the value "C:\projects\xerces-c-x.y.z\lib".
b) In the Control Panel, choose "System" and select the "Advanced" tab.
Click on the "Environment Variables" button. In the "System Variables"
list, select "Path" and add (via "Edit" button) the
";C:\projects\xerces-c-x.y.z\bin" path at the end.
2. Setting up XSD
Now you need to set up XSD executable and include search paths. Here
we assume that your XSD path is C:\projects\xsd-x.y.z. If you have XSD
in a different place you will need to adjust the paths below accordingly.
a) In the Visual C++ IDE, select "Tools"/"Options"/"Projects"/"VC++
Directories".
Then, in the "Show directories for" field, select "Include files" and
create a new entry with the value "C:\projects\xsd-x.y.z\libxsd".
After that, in the "Show directories for" field, select "Executable
files" and create a new entry with the value "C:\projects\xsd-x.y.z\bin".
Make sure it is the first line in the list of directories (use the
"Up" button to move the new entry up, if necessary).
3. Restart the Visual C++ IDE. This is necessary for the new value of the
"Path" environment variable to take effect.
Building Examples
-----------------
Now you are ready to build examples. Simply open the solution file
found in the examples/cxx/tree and examples/cxx/parser directories.
Some of the examples depend on additional third-party libraries or
show a specific feature of XSD and are not included in the solutions
above. They come with their individual solution files:
examples/cxx/tree/custom - examples of type customization
examples/cxx/tree/custom/calendar - depends on the Boost date_time librar
examples/cxx/tree/compression - depends on the zlib library
examples/cxx/tree/binary/boost - depends on the Boost serialization library
examples/cxx/tree/binary/cdr - depends on the ACE library
examples/cxx/tree/binary/xdr - requires a third-party XDR library
examples/cxx/tree/xpath - depends on the XQilla library (XPath 2)
examples/cxx/tree/dbxml - depends on the Berkeley DB XML library
Using in Your Projects
----------------------
For various ways to integrate the XSD compiler with the Microsoft Visual
Studio IDE as well as other Visual Studio-specific topics, refer to the
Using XSD with Microsoft Visual Studio Wiki page:
