writeDtdToFile can generate a DTD for the data specified in the model.
Comments are written to the DTD file inside the attribute declaration.
Is this really the right place? XML Spy reports an error. I am not sure,
if comments are allowed inside of the attribute declaration of a XML
DTD. I didn't find an description where comments in a XML DTD are
allowed. In a SGML DTD comments (starting with -- ) are allowed anywhere.
Is this a bug of DdlUtils or of XML Spy?
I didn't yet receive a complaint of an XML parser, but honestly, I
didn't check the DTD grammar either. Anyway, I will change the
generated DTD so that it follows the style of DTDDoc
(http://dtddoc.sourceforge.net), so that one can generate nice HTML
documentation out of it.
This is a good idea.
Could you perhaps create an issue in JIRA ?
cheers,

I created a bug issue in JIRA.
In general I would prefer XML Schema. With XML Schema the data type
definition is more detailled. For documentation a similar tool as dtddoc
exists: xsddoc (http://xframe.sourceforge.net/xsddoc/). I am aware, that
writing XML Schema's is more complicated than DTD's.
