I'd done some work on it a year ago, trying to build a DTD parser that would automatically generate a set of C++ routines that mirrored the DTD. -- search the net; its possible that someone has already created a generic DTD-to-C++ IDL compiler. (My code was generic also, and did not assume it was OFX). My complaint about XML in general is that the folks who created it did not seem to really think about how to make it a better IDL. -- Skip IDL entirely, and use something like libXML. I'm thinking that this may be simpler/easier/quicker in the short term, and might also be more robust in the long term. The problem with the IDL approach is that if anybody changes the DTD version then we have versionitis problems. By using the dynamic-any approach of things like libXML, these problems go away. --linas ----- %< -------------------------------------------- >% ------ The GnuCash / X-Accountant Mailing List To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe gnucash-devel [EMAIL PROTECTED]" in the body
