[great-users] reference to DTD in the code generator

[Feng Shi]

I like the idea that we should keep consistence with the UDM. So XSD should be used in stead of DTD. For the command line, personally I don't like to use special character to signal DTD/XSD file from others, no matter what the order, it can be easily told from the extension name.

Its good that the dtd file name is at the user end and we can change It in the examples. As for the specification of DTD's in the command line I will be happier to have different delimiters, e.g. ; is for copy file name and ! is for dtd file name.


Then the examples will be ABC="namehere"[;"copyname][!"dtdname"]

This we don't have to specify either the order or the requirement to have an empty string.

Still open for other ideas.

Adi,

Small problems, big discussions... S

1,
The .dtd extensions are specified in the configuration file, and not generated by CG.
Since we want to support both DTDs and XSDs in the near future, CG should not change the extension,
but the user should specify the correct extension in the first place.

2,
Regarding the DTD/XSD command line specification, if we use the format:

        FILE_ID="FILE_NAME"[[;"COPY_NAME"];"DTD/XSD_NAME"]
        
then users must specify the empty string for read-only files, e.g.:
	
	OPEN_FILE="open.xml";"";"XsdPath/XsdFile"

I am thinking of better solution...

Dear Attila,
 
I noticed that the generated code still refers to the dtd in the CreateNew and OpenExisting functions. Could you please change this to make it xsd. 
 
Thanks,
Adi
