The difficulty in the scenario we are discussing (I think) is that the list of valid values can be updated by the device, though presumably infrequently (e.g., when the software is updated). So the valid values aren't determined by the module itself. > #define SUPPORTED_COMPRESSION_METHODS > > must "compression-method ... SUPPORTED_COMPRESSION_METHODS"; I assume you can do this by writing the list of values directly in the Xpath expression. Not at all as nice, but at least it would work.
