[Animl-develop] AnIML query

[Prof. R. J. L. <rob...@uw...>]

Maren and Burkhard,

I have released an update to JSpecView where MeasurementData is
replaced by ExperimentStepSet and generated a dozen or so files
with the revised tags. I can email them to you if you want to put
them on sourceforge.

I have another query for you...

In CML they use
=========================================================
<spectrum id="$ident" title="$title" convention="jcamp:DX4.24"
    xmlns="http://www.xml-cml.org/schema"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.xml-cml.org/schema ../../schema.xsd"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:siUnits="http://www.xml-cml.org/units/siUnits"
    xmlns:units="http://www.xml-cml.org/units/units"
    xmlns:nmr="http://www.nmrshiftdb.org/dict"
    xmlns:cml="http://www.xml-cml.org/dict/cmlDict"
    xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" type="$specinits">


or it may be contained in a CML wrapper like...

<cml xmlns="http://www.xml-cml.org/schema"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.xml-cml.org/schema ../../schema.xsd"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:siUnits="http://www.xml-cml.org/units/siUnits"
    xmlns:units="http://www.xml-cml.org/units/units"
    xmlns:nmr="http://www.nmrshiftdb.org/dict"
    xmlns:cml="http://www.xml-cml.org/dict/cmlDict"
    xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">
<spectrum id =......>

==========================================================


For AnIML, why is it necessary to have an XML container?

Why can't it start with

<ANIML ......

I want to be able to easily distinguish the two forms by something
other than file extension since xml could be either.
I suspect that aml extensions may go the same way as cml and so I need
to be able to recognise them from the namespaces or something simple.

any suggestions
