doesn't support xs:anySimpleType

[eed3si9n]

XML Schema Part 2:

Definition: The simple ur-type definition is a special restriction of the ur-type definition whose name is anySimpleType in the XML Schema namespace. anySimpleType can be considered as the base type of all primitive datatypes. anySimpleType is considered to have an unconstrained lexical space and a value space consisting of the union of the value spaces of all the primitive datatypes and the set of all lists of all members of the value spaces of all the primitive datatypes.

For value space that big, it needs to map to Any.

Yeah. sigh. Is that easy to do?

[eed3si9n]

Yea, it's not bad since there's code in there for xs:anyType already.

[eed3si9n]

The following should at least generate the code.

$ mkdir dmtf
$ cd dmtf
$ wget http://schemas.dmtf.org/ovf/envelope/1/dsp8023_1.1.0.xsd http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2.22.0/CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData.xsd http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/common.xsd http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2.22.0/CIM_VirtualSystemSettingData.xsd
$ cd ..
$ scalaxb `find . -name '*.xsd'` --wrap-contents "{http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1}EntityType" --wrap-contents "{http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1}UserType" -p vcloud

Well, yes, but the resulting code doesn't compile. :-)

I renamed dmtf/common.xsd to dmtf/dmtf_common.xsd, and the errors were reduced to the following:

[vcloud-api-xsd-1.0]$ scalac *.scala

four errors found

I'll look into them, but I think they are different issue from xs:anySimpleType.

[eed3si9n]

I created #35 for any2 issue, and that's fixed. Confirmed that the vcloud generated code compiles.

[sagarcjoshi]

xs:anySimpleType gets converted into scalaxb.DataRecord[Any]. Is it right?
I gets difficult to extract value from this. e.g. In CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData.xsd the value in ResourceType is simple Int/short value. But I am not able to extract it from DataRecord. The value member of this DataRecord returns an XML, instead of actual value.

DataRecord({http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData}ResourceType,<rasd:ResourceType xmlns:ns12="http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1.5" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:vmext="http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/extension/v1.5" xmlns:vmw="http://www.vmware.com/schema/ovf" xmlns:vssd="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/CIM_VirtualSystemSettingData" xmlns:rasd="http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cim-schema/2/CIM_ResourceAllocationSettingData" xmlns:ovf="http://schemas.dmtf.org/ovf/envelope/1" xmlns="http://www.vmware.com/vcloud/v1.5">3</rasd:ResourceType>)

Actual XML

@sagarcjoshi Could you open a separate issue for the handling of ResourceType, or send an email to the mailing list to discuss this please? The answer is a bit involved, and I don't want to tack on to this case.
