Objective Systems Announces the Release of XBinder 1.2
XBinder(tm) is an XML data binding application that can generate C/C+
+
encoders/decoders from an XML schema specification. Version 1.2 is a
major new release of the product that adds the following capabilities
over previous versions:
- Use of a Pull-Parser for improved XML decoding. XML C and C++
decoder
generation has been changed to use a custom pull-parser as the
default
parser instead of a third-party SAX parser. This provides better
performance and provides a more logical model for data binding
applications.
- Improved handling of run-time type declarations (xsi:type). The
code
generation was updated to generate special structures for derived
types.
This makes it possible to encode and decode XML elements identified
by xsi:type declarations.
- Capability to encode and decode to/from DOM. An abstract DOM
interface
has been added which makes it possible to encode/decode to/from DOM
instead
of directly to XML. This makes use of DOM possible with XBinder
for
operations such as searching or generic node manipulation.
- Addition of copy constructors and deep-copy for all C++ classes.
The C++ memory management interface has been greatly simplified
such that all assignments now cause a deep-copy of the data to be
done.
- Improved custom type configuration. The capability was added to
change
the default C type that is mapped to a given XSD type. For
example,
it is possible to specify that a string be used to hold an
xsd:decimal
type instead of a floating point variable.
