[xsd-users] Question on XSD generated code

[Homer J S]

Hello,
I have the following class "depth" generated by XSD from an existing schema (not mine). The class is derived from xml_schema::double, with an optional attribute uom (string).

I could set the attr uom for an object by

myObject.uom("aString");

but I could not find a way to set the float value for an object without wiping out the existing uom attr of the object, e.g.,

myObject = 3.1416; //this will wipe the current value of uom attr

Am I missing something here please? 

Thanks
JS
