This example shows how to use the Embedded C++/Hybrid mapping to parse XML documents into an in-memory object model, modify this object model, and serialize it back to XML. The example consists of the following files: library.xsd XML Schema which describes a library of books. library.xml Sample XML instance document. library.hxx library.cxx library-pskel.hxx library-pskel.cxx library-pimpl.hxx library-pimpl.cxx library-pskel.hxx library-pskel.cxx library-pimpl.hxx library-pimpl.cxx Object model (the first pair of files), parser skeletons (the second pair), parser implementations (the third pair), serializer skeletons (the fourth pair), and serializer implementations (the fifth pair). These files are generated by the XSD/e compiler from library.xsd. The --generate-parser, --generate-serializer, and --generate-aggregate options were used to request the generation of the parsing and serialization code. The --omit-default-attributes option was used to omit the 'available' attributes with the default value from the serialized XML documents. driver.cxx Driver for the example. It first calls the parser that constructs the object model from the input XML file. It then prints the content of the object model to STDERR. Finally, the driver modifies the object model and calls the serializer to serialize it back to XML. To run the example on the sample XML instance document simply execute: $ ./driver library.xml The example reads from STDIN if input file is not specified: $ ./driver
