Yes, I see now. Your brandXml_t has a single required any wildcard.
The first constructor that you have shown expects you to pass the
value for that wildcard which, as you have shown, is awkward to
create.

As Chris suggested, the best way to resolve this is to generate
the default constructor with the --generate-default-ctor option.
Once this is done, you can populate a brandXml_t instance pretty
much the same way as in the 'wildcard' example:

brandXml_t xml;

DOMDocument& doc (xml.dom_document ());
DOMElement* e (doc.createElementSN (...));

// Serialize content to e.

xml.any (e);
