Hi, I've been looking at the HDF5 XML information here http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/XML/design-notes.html and am interested in use cases 2.4 and 2.7 regarding using the HDF5 XML DTD for the purposes of describing an HDF5 file format. In particular I want to be able to do things like define file templates in XML, generate HDF5 files from those templates, and to validate files I create or receive against a versioned XML "schema" that describes what the HDF5 files should contain. I see that h5dump can output an XML description of the file, but how can I check another file against that description or generate a file from that description?
Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing or suggestions for alternatives? Coming up with some template files of my own and a validation utility is an option, but I am wondering if there are already some standard solutions for this that I can reuse?
