Are you going to have values of members in your structure or just member
names and their type information?

The only way that I can think of is by using DOM PSVI (stands for Post
Schema Validation Infoset). It would contain XML Schema type for each
element/attribute in DOM document. Look at getTypeInfo function in
DOMElement and DOMAttribute types.
