H Eitan, > where can i find out more about daan's gui generator?
try ftp://ftp.snow.nl/pub/castor there are some archives there, no documentation. One of the archives contains a patched castor. The others example applications. I will try to continue put in the odd hour a week, but can't guarantee it, so there is no real support for now. Also maybe contact "Kurt Spanier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>". He is thinking to do it all over (and probably better). Have fun and good luck. > -----Original Message----- > From: Eitan Suez [mailto:eitan@;uptodata.com] > Sent: Saturday, November 09, 2002 3:43 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [castor-dev] the reverse of XMLInstance2Schema > > > ok, i see; thanks. by the way, an idea occurred to me > recently of a databinding framework between an xml > schema and an html gui for data entry. that is, you feed > a schema to a program that generates html forms with > the necessary javascript to enforce validation and the > production of a valid xml instance document when the > form is submitted. this might be used by a tester for > data entry and for the production of instance documents > based on a schema. > > it turns out that someone's already done this. i stumbled > across it on the w3c schema pages at: > > http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/xmlschema-dev/2002Jun/0050.html > > they call it schema-forms. > > where can i find out more about daan's gui generator? > > thanks! / eitan > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 4:03 PM > Subject: Re: [castor-dev] the reverse of XMLInstance2Schema > > > > Eitan, > > > > You wrote: > > > can you explain why one might seek a different > > > way to do schema-to-instance? > > > > As part of a QA/testing effort, we want > > the non-technical folks in our dept > > involved in creating the XML. > > > > 1) The tester guy/gal wants to flex the business > functionality handled > > by the > > data structures in a particular schema (perhaps FundsTransfer.xsd). > > 2) The Tester clicks a link to generate sample xml instance based on > > FundsTransfer.xsd schema. > > 3) The Tester modifies the generated instance using an XML editor. > > 4) The tester clicks a separate link to submit the xml to the system > > 5) The tester analyzes results (also in xml). > > > > Ultimately, we'd like to use Daan's UI generator instead of the XML > > editor. > > > > Thanks, > > > > --Erik > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Eitan Suez [mailto:eitan@;uptodata.com] > > > Sent: Thursday, November 07, 2002 3:45 PM > > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > Subject: Re: [castor-dev] the reverse of XMLInstance2Schema > > > > > > > > > hi erik, > > > > > > why not just > > > a. apply the sourcegenerator on the schema, > > > b. use java to construct an instance > > > c. marshal it to xml > > > ? > > > > > > this indirectly provides a schema-to-instance > > > generation mecahnism. > > > > > > can you explain why one might seek a different > > > way to do schema-to-instance? > > > > > > thanks, eitan > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 4:56 PM > > > Subject: [castor-dev] the reverse of XMLInstance2Schema > > > > > > > > > > Hi all, > > > > > > > > I'm familiar with XMLInstance2Schema.
