For general coverage of XML Schema polymorphism handling +in the C++/Parser mapping see the polymorphism example. + +The example consists of the following files: + +supermen.xsd + XML Schema which describes the "supermen" instance documents. + +person.xml +superman.xml +batman.xml + Sample XML instance documents. + +supermen-pskel.hxx +supermen-pskel.cxx + Parser skeletons generated by the XSD compiler from supermen.xsd. + Note the use of the --generate-polymorphic command line option. + +supermen-pimpl.hxx +supermen-pimpl.cxx + Parser implementations that print the XML data to STDOUT. + +driver.cxx + Driver for the example. It implements a custom document parser + that determines which XML Schema type is being parsed and uses + the corresponding parser implementation. The driver first + constructs a parser instance from all the individual parsers + found in supermen-pimpl.hxx. In then invokes this parser instance + to parse the input file. + +To run the example on the sample XML instance documents simply execute: + +$ ./driver person.xml +$ ./driver superman.xml +$ ./driver batman.xml |
