Summary: Feature requests 3175990, 3175992, 3175997

Initial Comment:
Dear xsddoc admins/maintainers,

I patched xsddoc version 1.-0 to accomodate my above mentioned feature requests and kindly ask that you integrate the patch into xsddoc.

- Improved command line error handling
- Errors cause xsddoc to exit with code 1
- New command line argument -n|-neDoc sets nested element documentation mode to short, full or full/preformatted text
- Ability to specify and document multiple XML schema documents on the command line

While you are at it, please change the line terminators in the UNIX shell script bin/xssdoc from Windows to UNIX format. (The script won't work with Windows line terminators)

Also can you make a release 1.1 or 1.0.1 ?

If you don't have the time to do all this , I'd be happy to help out if you give me the appropriate rights (I have own SF projects so I know what to do).

thank you
Chris

Hi Chris,

your patch is now applied on my desktop, but not yet checked-in to CVS.

I like your on-the fly generation of a mediator schema for collecting
multiple schema files.

Concerning the handling of nested element documentaion, I am wondering if
we should offer this in general, or at least a part your changes. Here are
my sugestions

(1) pre-tags: I would suggest a new parameter that is used for ALL
documentation, similar to the -noasciiart parameter in xnsdoc
(http://www.buldocs.com/xnsdoc/usage.html)

(2) short or long: I would suggest a new paramter -(e.g. -longDoc) that is
used for all documentation that is currently transformed in
short-documentation mode.

(3) Apache Ant: I will take care of enabeling all new features in the Ant
task. For the multiple schema file feature I hopefully can adopt some code
from xnsdoc.

Please let me know if you agree with my suggestions or if you have
different or further ideas.

Thank you
Kurt

Hello Kurt,

I uploaded the patch in unified format and also added a patch that removes
DOS line feeds from the xsddoc shell script.

Thanks for taking time. Will there be an official release of these (and
possibly other) changes?

thanks, Chris
