Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-936:
--------------------------------------
Hi,
the old request referring to a missing DTD (or even an XSD) for simplifying
BXML writing was close because BXMLSerializer uses Java reflection to inspect
Pivot Beans., so it's hard to generate a schema from all our beans and keep it
aligned with code. Of course a schema to check/validate bxml files would be
useful.
But in a child subproject I think that a tool for inspecting Pivot Beans (and
maybe others), and generate/update schema definition could be useful.
Contributions are welcome.
What do you think ?
> Create a XML Schema for BXML

> Key: PIVOT-936
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-936
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core-xml
> Reporter: Labrosse Aurélien
>
> I saw an older bug that focuses on DTD, which was sadely closed.
> From my point of view using XML without schema is dangerous for project
> adoption : as a model driven architecture fan, i can't use a perfect mapping
> to produce BXML code without an ugly generator.
> The xml schema would suppress this limitation and leverage Pivot to a more
> professional level. It would allow its core syntax to be used in various
> existing model transformation tools available on the Open Source market.
