[Generateds-discuss] Single simpleType results in un-exportable enum

[David F. <fer...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm trying to use generateDS to parse and generate XML documents, and
am very impressed so far - it is handling some complex XSDs very well.

However I seem to have run into an issue for a simple XSD, where only
a single simpleType enum is defined. My XDS is as follows:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<xsi:schema xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" version="4.1.0">
  <xsi:simpleType name="MyTestXML">
    <xsi:restriction base="xsd:string">
      <xsi:enumeration value="ValueA"/>
      <xsi:enumeration value="ValueB"/>
    </xsi:restriction>
  </xsi:simpleType>
</xsi:schema>

And the XML documents are very simple, for example
<MyTestXML>ValueA</MyTestXML>.

When I run generateDS with `generateDS -o test.py test.xsd `, the
output is just an enum, eg:

class MyTestXML(str, Enum):
  VALUE_A='ValueA'
  VALUE_B='ValueB'

And therefore I cannot parse, or export XML documents. Is this
something I'm doing wrong, or a limitation in the program?

Many thanks,
David
