A detailed explanation of how the namespace regex substitution works is
available in the xsd man pages (see under the --namespace-regex option):

http://codesynthesis.com/projects/xsd/documentation/xsd.xhtml


If you want to replace one string with another then you can do something
like this:

--namespace-regex '%.* <xml-ns>%<cxx-ns>%'

Where <xml-ns> should be replaced with an XML namespace and <cxx-ns>
with a C++ namespace, e.g.,

--namespace-regex '%.* http://www.example.com/foo%example::foo%'


We should probably have a short-cut option for cases like this that
does not involve regex, something like:


--namespace-map http://www.example.com/foo=example::foo
