In effect, we'd be using Django models as a (limited) schema language. Wow. That's a very interesting idea. I wish I'd thought of that. But, no, generateDS does not do that. In fact, there is nothing specific to generateDS in that task. So, you might want to ask that question on one of the Django forums. I believe that if I were to try to attempt it, I'd think about implementing a mix-in class that could be inherited from (in addition to (django.db.models.Model). That could make it reasonably easy to "walk" the model definition, and generate an element definition for each Django model. Best of luck with it. I suspect that there would be other Django developers who would be interested in this also. Let me know if you make some progress with it. - Dave -- Dave Kuhlman http://www.rexx.com/~dkuhlman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
