Jens Geyer commented on THRIFT-3523:
------------------------------------
Is there any way to generate valid XSD from the new XML output? I just looked
for the latest XSD changes from last year and I found that it was you as well:
THRIFT-3417. Does that mean that you stopped using the XSD generator in favour
of the new XML generator?

> Key: THRIFT-3523
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3523
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Compiler (General)
> Reporter: Benjamin Gould
> Assignee: Benjamin Gould
> Priority: Minor
>
> I've put together an XML model for Thrift IDL that is very similar in concept
> and structure to the model created by the JSON generator of the Thrift
> compiler. The code is based on the JSON generator, and inherits the 'merge'
> option from that module for including the model of all includes in a single
> file if desired.
> This generator is useful if you wish to extend the Thrift compiler with some
> XML based templating engine such as XSLT. For example I have prototyped
> transforms that can create valid XML schema and WSDL files from Thrift IDL,
> as well as transform SOAP requests and responses to and from Thrift messages.
> Those transforms are not included because they may be outside the scope of
> Thrift, but I can provide them if interested. Regardless, I feel the XML
> model is generally useful and might be a good addition to the Thrift compiler.
> Also included is an XML schema for the model file format and tests that
> generate XML from existing IDL in the Thrift test suite to validate against
> that schema. These tests are Ant based and so only run when --with-java is
> enabled in ./configure
