--------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
DFDL Schemas that are desirable are separate topic/effort from apache daffodil.
Not tracked with Daffodil JIRA tickets.
> DFDLSchema example for Asterisk
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: DAFFODIL-1754
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-1754
> Project: Daffodil
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: DFDL Schemas
> Reporter: Michael Beckerle
> Priority: Major
>
> Asterix format has come up 3 times now.
> This is a publicly available standard data format.
> We can economize effort in support for people on Asterix by just creating the
> starting point schema for it and publishing it to DFDLSchemas.
> We should create one the way we think it should be done for maintainability
> and performance (ex: using occursCountKind="expression" and occursCount="{
> ../hdr/flag }" vs. discriminators)
> There is an excellent looking tool called www.asterixtk.com which has a free
> version and it includes some sample data. Also has ability to output XML. It
> would be interesting to see to what degree DFDL can produce that XML or
> something close to it. I don't know if there is an XML Schema for this XML.
> Creating a comprehensive DFDL schema for Asterix is a big job. I think a
> schema for just one message type (e.g., cat062), that will parse one example
> piece of data is all that is required really. If we're lucky people who
> really want to do Asterix will undertake the added QA/test, and growing the
> schema's coverage of the spec.
