xsdcxx - Man Page

Specify the C++ standard that the generated code should conform to. Valid values are c++98 (default) and c++11.

The C++ standard affects various aspects of the generated code that are discussed in more detail in various mapping-specific documentation. Overall, when C++11 is selected, the generated code relies on the move semantics and uses std::unique_ptr instead of deprecated std::auto_ptr.

When the C++11 mode is selected, you normally don't need to perform any extra steps other than enable C++11 in your C++ compiler, if required. The XSDCXX compiler will automatically add the necessary macro defines to the generated header files that will switch the header-only XSDCXX runtime library (libxsd) to the C++11 mode. However, if you include any of the XSDCXX runtime headers directly in your application (normally you just include the generated headers), then you will need to define the XSD_CXX11 macro for your entire project.

Generate code using the provided character type instead of the default char. Valid values are char and wchar_t.

Specify the character encoding that should be used in the generated code. Valid values for the char character type are utf8 (default), iso8859-1, lcp (Xerces-C++ local code page), and custom. If you pass custom as the value then you will need to include the transcoder implementation header for your encoding at the beginning of the generated header files (see the --hxx-prologue option).

For the wchar_t character type the only valid value is auto and the encoding is automatically selected between UTF-16 and UTF-32/UCS-4, depending on the wchar_t type size.

Write generated files to dir instead of the current directory.

Generate simple functions inline. This option triggers creation of the inline file.

Generate a C++ header file as if the schema being compiled defines the XML Schema namespace. For the C++/Tree mapping, the resulting file will contain definitions for all XML Schema built-in types. For the C++/Parser mapping, the resulting file will contain definitions for all the parser skeletons and implementations corresponding to the XML Schema built-in types.

The schema file provided to the compiler need not exist and is only used to derive the name of the resulting header file. Use the --extern-xml-schema option to include this file in the generated files for other schemas.

Include a header file derived from file instead of generating the XML Schema namespace mapping inline. The provided file need not exist and is only used to derive the name of the included header file. Use the --generate-xml-schema option to generate this header file.

Map XML Schema namespace xns to C++ namespace cns. Repeat this option to specify mapping for more than one XML Schema namespace. For example, the following option:

--namespace-map http://example.com/foo/bar=foo::bar

Will map the http://example.com/foo/bar XML Schema namespace to the foo::bar C++ namespace.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate XML Schema namespace names to C++ namespace names. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported.

All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used. Regular expressions are applied to a string in the form

filename namespace

For example, if you have file hello.xsd with namespace http://example.com/hello and you run xsd on this file, then the string in question will be:

hello.xsd. http://example.com/hello

For the built-in XML Schema namespace the string is:

XMLSchema.xsd http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema

The following three steps are performed for each regular expression until the match is found:

1. The expression is applied and if the result is empty the next expression is considered.

2. All '/' are replaced with '::'.

3. The result is verified to be a valid C++ scope name (e.g., foo::bar). If this test succeeds, the result is used as a C++ namespace name.

As an example, the following expression maps XML  Schema namespaces in the form http://example.com/foo/bar to C++ namespaces in the form foo::bar:

%.* http://example.com/(.+)%$1%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --namespace-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Add name n to the list of names that should not be used as identifiers. The name can optionally be followed by = and the replacement name r that should be used instead. All the C++ keywords are already in this list.

Use angle brackets (<>) instead of quotes ("") in generated #include directives.

Add prefix to generated #include directive paths.

For example, if you had the following import element in your schema

<import namespace="..." schemaLocation="base.xsd"/>

and compiled this fragment with --include-prefix schemas/, then the include directive in the generated code would be:

#include "schemas/base.hxx"

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to transform #include directive paths. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported.

All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used.

As an example, the following expression transforms paths in the form schemas/foo/bar to paths in the form generated/foo/bar:

%schemas/(.+)%generated/$1%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --include-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Add prefix to generated header inclusion guards. The prefix is transformed to upper case and characters that are illegal in a preprocessor macro name are replaced with underscores. If this option is not specified then the directory part of the input schema file is used as a prefix.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default .hxx to construct the name of the header file. Note that this suffix is also used to construct names of header files corresponding to included/imported schemas.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default .ixx to construct the name of the inline file.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default .cxx to construct the name of the source file.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default -fwd.hxx to construct the name of the forward declaration file.

Use the provided expression to construct the name of the header file. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Note that this expression is also used to construct names of header files corresponding to included/imported schemas. See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Use the provided expression to construct the name of the inline file. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Insert the content of the file at the end of each generated file for which there is no file-specific epilogue file.

Insert symbol in places where DLL export/import control statements (__declspec(dllexport/dllimport)) are necessary.

Export/import types in the XML Schema namespace using the export symbol provided with the --export-symbol option. The XSD_NO_EXPORT macro can be used to omit this code during C++ compilation, which may be useful if you would like to use the same generated code across multiple platforms.

Export polymorphism support maps from a Win32 DLL into which this generated code is placed. This is necessary when your type hierarchy is split across several DLLs since otherwise each DLL will have its own set of maps. In this situation the generated code for the DLL which contains base types and/or substitution group heads should be compiled with this option and the generated code for all other DLLs should be compiled with --import-maps. This option is only valid together with --generate-polymorphic. The XSD_NO_EXPORT macro can be used to omit this code during C++ compilation, which may be useful if you would like to use the same generated code across multiple platforms.

Import polymorphism support maps to a Win32 DLL or executable into which this generated code is linked. See the --export-maps option documentation for details. This options is only valid together with --generate-polymorphic. The XSD_NO_EXPORT macro can be used to omit this code during C++ compilation, which may be useful if you would like to use the same generated code across multiple platforms.

Generate make dependency information. This option triggers the creation of the .d file containing the dependencies of the generated files on the main schema file as well as all the schema files that it includes/imports, transitively. This dependency file is then normally included into the main makefile to implement automatic dependency tracking.

Note also that automatic dependency generation is not supported in the file-per-type mode (--file-per-type). In this case, all the generated files are produced with a single compiler invocation and depend on all the schemas. As a result, it is easier to establish such a dependency manually, perhaps with the help of the --file-list* options.

Generate make dependency information only.

Generate phony targets for included/imported schema files, causing each to depend on nothing. Such dummy rules work around make errors caused by the removal of schema files without also updating the dependency file to match.

Change the target of the dependency rule. By default it contains all the generated C++ files as well as the dependency file itself, without any directory prefixes. If you require multiple targets, then you can specify them as a single, space-separated argument or you can repeat this option multiple times.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default .d to construct the name of the dependency file.

Use the provided expression to construct the name of the dependency file. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Disable printing warning with id warn. If all is specified for the warning id then all warnings are disabled.

Read additional options from file. Each option should appearing on a separate line optionally followed by space and an option value. Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored. Option values can be enclosed in double (") or single (') quotes  to preserve leading and trailing whitespaces as well as to specify empty values. If the value itself contains trailing or leading quotes, enclose it with an extra pair of quotes, for example '"x"'. Non-leading and non-trailing quotes are interpreted as being part of the option value.

The semantics of providing options in a file is equivalent to providing the same set of options in the same order on the command line at the point where the --options-file option is specified except that the shell escaping and quoting is not required. You can repeat this option to specify more than one options file.

Show the number of generated physical source lines of code (SLOC).

Check that the number of generated physical source lines of code (SLOC) does not exceed num.

Indicate that the generated code is licensed under a proprietary license instead of the GPL.

Load custom XML string to C++ literal mappings from file. This mechanism can be useful if you are using a custom character encoding and some of the strings in your schemas, for example element/attribute names or enumeration values, contain non-ASCII characters. In this case you will need to provide a custom mapping to C++ literals for such strings. The format of this file is specified in the custom-literals.xsd XML Schema file that can be found in the documentation directory.

Preserve anonymous types. By default anonymous types are automatically named with names derived from the enclosing elements/attributes. Because mappings implemented by this compiler require all types to be named, this option is only useful if you want to make sure your schemas don't have anonymous types.

Show elements and attributes that are of anonymous types. This option only makes sense together with the --preserve-anonymous option.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to derive names for anonymous types from the enclosing attributes/elements. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported.

All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used. Regular expressions are applied to a string in the form

filename namespace xpath

For instance:

hello.xsd http://example.com/hello element

hello.xsd http://example.com/hello type/element

As an example, the following expression makes all the derived names start with capital letters. This could be useful when your naming convention requires type names to start with capital letters:

%.* .* (.+/)*(.+)%\u$2%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --anonymous-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Map the original schema location ol that is specified in the XML Schema include or import elements to new schema location nl. Repeat this option to map more than one schema location. For example, the following option maps the http://example.com/foo.xsd URL to the foo.xsd local file.

--location-map http://example.com/foo.xsd=foo.xsd

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to map schema locations that are specified in the XML Schema include or import elements. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported. All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used.

For example, the following expression maps URL locations in the form http://example.com/foo/bar.xsd to local files in the form bar.xsd:

%http://.+/(.+)%$1%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --location-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Generate a separate set of C++ files for each type defined in XML Schema. Note that in this mode you only need to compile the root schema(s) and the code will be generated for all included and imported schemas. This compilation mode is primarily useful when some of your schemas cannot be compiled separately or have cyclic dependencies which involve type inheritance. Other options related to this mode are: --type-file-regex, --schema-file-regex, --fat-type-file, and --file-list.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate type names to file names when the --file-per-type option is specified. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported. All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used. Regular expressions are applied to a string in the form

namespace type-name

For example, the following expression maps type foo that is defined in the http://example.com/bar namespace to file name bar-foo:

%http://example.com/(.+) (.+)%$1-$2%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --type-file-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate schema file names when the --file-per-type option is specified. regex is a Perl-like regular expression in the form /pattern/replacement/. Any character can be used as a delimiter instead of '/'. Escaping of the delimiter character in pattern or replacement is not supported. All the regular expressions are pushed into a stack with the last specified expression considered first. The first match that succeeds is used. Regular Expressions are applied to the absolute filesystem path of a schema file and the result, including the directory part, if any, is used to derive the #include directive paths as well as the generated C++ file paths. This option, along with --type-file-regex are primarily useful to place the generated files into subdirectories or to resolve file name conflicts.

For example, the following expression maps schema files in the foo/1.0.0/ subdirectory to the files in the foo/ subdirectory. As a result, the #include directive paths for such schemas will be in the foo/schema.hxx form and the generated C++ files will be placed into the foo/ subdirectory:

%.*/foo/1.0.0/(.+)%foo/$1%

See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the --schema-file-regex option. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Generate code corresponding to global elements into type files instead of schema files when the --type-file-regex option is specified. This option is primarily useful when trying to minimize the amount of object code that is linked to an executable by packaging compiled generated code into a static (archive) library.

Write a list of generated C++ files to file. This option is primarily useful in the file-per-type compilation mode (--file-per-type) to create a list of generated C++ files, for example, as a makefile fragment.

Insert text at the beginning of the file list. As a convenience, all occurrences of the \n character sequence in text are replaced with new lines. This option can, for example, be used to assign the generated file list to a makefile variable.

Insert text at the end of the file list. As a convenience, all occurrences of the \n character sequence in text are replaced with new lines.

Delimit file names written to the file list with text instead of new lines. As a convenience, all occurrences of the \n character sequence in text are replaced with new lines.

Generate polymorphism-aware code. Specify this option if you use substitution groups or xsi:type. Use the --polymorphic-type or --polymorphic-type-all option to specify which type hierarchies are polymorphic.

Indicate that type is a root of a polymorphic type hierarchy. The compiler can often automatically determine which types are polymorphic based on the substitution group declarations. However, you may need to use this option if you are not using substitution groups or if substitution groups are defined in another schema. You need to specify this option when compiling every schema file that references type. The type argument is an XML Schema type name that can be optionally qualified with a namespace in the namespace#name form.

Indicate that all types should be treated as polymorphic.

Specify the polymorphic map plate the generated code should register on. This functionality is primarily useful to segregate multiple schemas that define the same polymorphic types.

Indicate that element order in type is significant. An example would be a complex type with unbounded choice as a content model where the element order in XML has application-specific semantics. For ordered types the compiler generates a special container data member and a corresponding set of accessors and modifiers that are used to capture the order of elements and, for mixed content, of text.

The type argument is an XML Schema type name that can be optionally qualified with a namespace in the namespace#name form. Note also that you will need to specify this option when compiling every schema file that has other ordered types derived from this type.

Automatically treat types derived from ordered bases as also ordered. This is primarily useful if you would like to be able to iterate over the complete content using the content order container.

Automatically treat complex types with mixed content as ordered.

Indicate that element order in all types is significant.

Specify a custom class template that should be used as a container for the content order in ordered types instead of the default std::vector. See --ordered-type for more information on ordered type. This option is primarily useful if you need to perform more complex lookups in the content order container, for example by element id. In this case, a container like Boost multi-index may be more convenient. Note that if using a custom container, you will also most likely need to include the relevant headers using the --hxx-prologue* options.

Generate serialization functions. Serialization functions convert the object model back to XML.

Generate ostream insertion operators (operator<<) for generated types. This allows one to easily print a fragment or the whole object model for debugging or logging.

Generate documentation comments suitable for extraction by the Doxygen documentation system. Documentation from annotations is added to the comments if present in the schema.

Generate comparison operators (operator== and operator!=) for complex types. Comparison is performed member-wise.

Generate default constructors even for types that have required members. Required members of an instance constructed using such a constructor are not initialized and accessing them results in undefined behavior.

Generate constructors that expect an instance of a base type followed by all required members.

Suppress the generation of copy assignment operators for complex types. If this option is specified, the copy assignment operators for such types are declared private and left unimplemented.

Generate detach functions for required elements and attributes. Detach functions for optional and sequence cardinalities are provided by the respective containers. These functions, for example, allow you to move sub-trees in the object model either within the same tree or between different trees.

Generate accessors and modifiers as well as parsing and serialization code for XML Schema wildcards (any and anyAttribute). XML content matched by wildcards is presented as DOM fragments. Note that you need to initialize the Xerces-C++ runtime if you are using this option.

Extract and store content of the XML Schema anyType type as a DOM fragment. Note that you need to initialize the Xerces-C++ runtime if you are using this option.

Generate data representation stream insertion operators for the os output stream type. Repeat this option to specify more than one stream type. The ACE CDR stream (ACE_OutputCDR) and RPC XDR are recognized by the compiler and the necessary #include directives are automatically generated. For custom stream types use the --hxx-prologue* options to provide the necessary declarations.

Generate data representation stream extraction constructors for the is input stream type. Repeat this option to specify more than one stream type. The ACE CDR stream (ACE_InputCDR) and RPC XDR are recognized by the compiler and the necessary #include directives are automatically generated. For custom stream types use the --hxx-prologue* options to provide the necessary declarations.

Generate a separate header file with forward declarations for the types being generated.

Suppress the generation of the parsing functions and constructors. Use this option to reduce the generated code size when parsing from XML is not needed.

Generate types instead of parsing and serialization functions for root elements. This is primarily useful to distinguish object models with the same root type but with different root elements.

Generate a root element map that allows uniform parsing and serialization of multiple root elements. This option is only valid together with --generate-element-type.

Generate workarounds for IntelliSense bugs in Visual Studio 2005 (8.0). When this option is used, the resulting code is slightly more verbose. IntelliSense in Visual Studio 2008 (9.0) and later does not require these workarounds. Support for IntelliSense in Visual Studio 2003 (7.1) is improved with this option but is still incomplete.

Omit attributes with default and fixed values from serialized XML documents.

Specify the type naming convention that should be used in the generated code. Valid styles are knr (default), ucc, and java. See the Naming Convention section below for more information.

Specify the function naming convention that should be used in the generated code. Valid styles are knr (default), lcc, and java. See the Naming Convention section below for more information.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate XML Schema-derived names to C++ constant names. See the Naming Convention section below for more information.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate XML Schema enumeration values to C++ enumerator names. See the Naming Convention section below for more information.

Add regex to the list of regular expressions used to translate XML Schema element names to C++ element type names. See the Naming Convention section below for more information.

Trace the process of applying regular expressions specified with the name transformation options. Use this option to find out why your regular expressions don't do what you expected them to do.

Treat only the first global element as a document root. By default all global elements are considered document roots.

Treat only the last global element as a document root. By default all global elements are considered document roots.

Treat all global elements as document roots. This is the default behavior. By explicitly specifying this option you can suppress the warning that is issued if more than one global element is defined.

Do not treat any global elements as document roots. By default all global elements are considered document roots.

Treat only element as a document root. Repeat this option to specify more than one root element.

Use a custom C++ type instead of the generated class. The map argument is in the form name[=type[/base]], where name is a type name as defined in XML Schema and type is a C++ type name that should be used instead. If type is not present or empty then the custom type is assumed to have the same name and be defined in the same namespace as the generated class would have. If base is specified then the generated class is still generated but with that name.

Use custom C++ types instead of the generated classes. The regex argument is in the form /name-pat/[type-sub/[base-sub/]], where name-pat is a regex pattern that will be matched against type names as defined in XML Schema and type-sub is a C++ type name substitution that should be used instead. If type-sub is not present or its substitution results in an empty string then the custom type is assumed to have the same name and be defined in the same namespace as the generated class would have. If base-sub is present and its substitution results in a non-empty string then the generated class is still generated but with the result of this substitution as its name. The pattern and substitutions are in the Perl regular expression format. See also the Regex and Shell Quoting section below.

Split generated source code into num parts. This is useful when translating large, monolithic schemas and a C++ compiler is not able to compile the resulting source code at once (usually due to insufficient memory).

Use suffix instead of the default '-' to separate the file name from the part number.

Read XML Schema to C++ type mapping information from mapfile. Repeat this option to specify several type maps. Type maps are considered in order of appearance and the first match is used. By default all user-defined types are mapped to void. See the Type Map section below for more information.

Use parser as the underlying XML parser. Valid values are xerces for Xerces-C++ (default) and expat for Expat.

Generate validation code. The validation code ("perfect parser") ensures that instance documents conform to the schema. Validation code is generated by default when the selected underlying XML parser is non-validating (expat).

Suppress the generation of validation code. Validation is suppressed by default when the selected underlying XML parser is validating (xerces).

Generate polymorphism-aware code. Specify this option if you use substitution groups or xsi:type.

Generate a sample parser implementation that does nothing (no operation). The sample implementation can then be filled with the application-specific code. For an input file in the form name.xsd this option triggers the generation of two additional C++ files in the form: name-pimpl.hxx (parser implementation header file) and name-pimpl.cxx (parser implementation source file).

Generate a sample parser implementation that prints the XML data to STDOUT. For an input file in the form name.xsd this option triggers the generation of two additional C++ files in the form: name-pimpl.hxx (parser implementation header file) and name-pimpl.cxx (parser implementation source file).

Generate a test driver for the sample parser implementation. For an input file in the form name.xsd this option triggers the generation of an additional C++ file in the form name-driver.cxx.

Force overwriting of the existing implementation and test driver files. Use this option only if you do not mind loosing the changes you have made in the sample implementation or test driver files.

Indicate that the first global element is the document root. This information is used to generate the test driver for the sample implementation.

Indicate that the last global element is the document root. This information is used to generate the test driver for the sample implementation.

Indicate that element is the document root. This information is used to generate the test driver for the sample implementation.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default _pskel to construct the names of the generated parser skeletons.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default -pskel to construct the names of the generated parser skeleton files.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default _pimpl to construct the names of the parser implementations for the built-in XML Schema types as well as sample parser implementations.

Use the provided suffix instead of the default -pimpl to construct the names of the generated sample parser implementation files.
