[hibernate-dev] hibernate-mapping DTD as XSD

Sun Aug 22 19:18:54 EDT 2010

I think of it more like deprecating the DTD in favor of XSD; but I am known for unique views on deprecation :)

Interesting. That is a good way to get the community testing it out. In fact, perhaps you can label the XSD feature as "caveat emptor" (pun) until it rolls out officially in 4.0?

Do we offer both for 3.6 to start working out any kinks in the XSD for

4? &nbsp;I think that seems reasonable, provided we are good about not doing

DTD changes after 3.6.0.Final.

&gt; I don't vote for keeping them in sync. DTDs can't compete with the

&gt; validation of XSD. I would favor making this a 4.0 feature.

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I'd prefer a java or command line tool that we could use to

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; automate the

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; process (obviously if we drop dtd for xsd this is not a

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; concern).

&gt;

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; I had seen both Trang as well as the w3c tool. &nbsp;I guess more I

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; was

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; asking if anyone knew other/better ones.

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; &gt; Any objections to either converting to XSD completely or

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; publishing in

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; &gt; both formats?

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt;

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; +1 for XSD only. Not sure if there is any use in keeping the

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; DTD.

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt;

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; &gt; Anyone recommend a good DTD -&gt; XSD tool?

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt;

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; Oxygen can do it. That would be my first pick to try with.

&gt; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &gt; Otherwise this might help -
