Yes, I give you a day or two ;-) And I'll even try to think with you.
If you ask me, an <any> element should be treated like any other child
element except that there is no type checking and no surrounding tag.
User code is responsible for supplying a valid XML string. In my case
I'm going to generate that string according to another XSD file (the one
specified by ServiceId).
Already the instantiator of class ServiceRequestType should change.
Currently it is::
def __init__(self, ServiceId=None, Version=None):
self.ServiceId = ServiceId
self.Version = Version
But it should be::
def __init__(self, ServiceId=None, Version=None,any=None):
self.ServiceId = ServiceId
self.Version = Version
self.any = any
And then of course new methods get_any and set_any.
And e.g. exportChildren should be something like::
def exportChildren(self, outfile, level, namespace_='',
name_='ServiceRequestType', fromsubclass_=False):
if self.ServiceId is not None:
showIndent(outfile, level)
outfile.write('<%sServiceId>%s</%sServiceId>\n' %
(namespace_,self.gds_format_string(quote_xml(
self.ServiceId).encode(ExternalEncoding),
input_name='ServiceId'), namespace_))
...
if self.any is not None:
showIndent(outfile, level)
outfile.write(self.any.encode(ExternalEncoding),
input_name='ServiceId'), namespace_))
But these are maybe naive ideas since I have no serious experience and
didn't yet dive into your code.
