Hi Ruby Friends
Thanks to Sean about REXML it realy does a fine job.
Having to deal with XML Instance Documents I mainyl find myself getting
the value or text of an element or attribute and work (read, compare)
with it. So what I get is a ruby string.
XML Schema provides “lots” of built in data types, such as string, date,
time etc.
Also derived types from string where user can set facets, such as having
white spaces collapsed (“abc def” will be the same as “abc def” for
example).
Are there any attempts to support these a) built in data types and b)
provide means to support derived data types?
I think REXML is not there, yet.
Anyone using libxml binding or similar bindings for XML Schema specific
jobs?
Kind regards.
