EXTERNAL: Re: [xsd-users] Serialization of Polymorphic Sequences

[Friess, Jason]

Thanks!  Using "--polymorphic-type ParentType" when generating the C++ code seems to work for us.  It seems like CodeSynthesis was not automatically recognizing ParentType as the root of a polymorphic type hierarchy (probably because we're not using "substitutionGroup" declarations in our XSD's.  We are now seeing the result we're expecting when serializing to XML.

Thanks,
Jason

Your code looks fine to me. Have you compiled your schemas with the
--generate-polymorphic option and used the --polymorphic-type option
to mark ParentType as the root of a polymorphic type hierarchy?

See the XSD compiler command line manual (man pages) for more
information on these options:
