Dear All, I've been experimenting lately with the idea of user customizable code fragments that can be copy and pasted into code in order to speed up programming. You can define a template that specifies a set of information to be captured from a user (such as text boxes for names, and checkboxes and radio buttons to select sub-sections of a template) and then generate a snippet of code that can be pasted into a program. While not restricted to XML Schema, I've created some templates to support writing schemas using a text editor (such as Visual Studio etc.). XSD seems a good candidate for this as it is often quite verbose and it's not always easy (for me!) to remember the order in which various elements go. I would like to invite you to download Code Scrapbook and see whether it helps improve your coding productivity. Naturally you're welcome you edit the templates, or add your own, possibly even for things like XSLT or Java/C# etc. I may even be able to role them back into the main build. I've already got some ideas for how to improve it from doing the XSD templates, but if you have any suggestions I'd be delighted to hear from you. And if you find it doesn't really work for you for some reason that would be interesting to hear also. You can download it (for free obviously!) from: http://www.codalogic.com/ccsb/ Thanks and enjoy, Pete Cordell Codalogic Ltd Interface XML to C++ the easy way using C++ XML data binding to convert XSD schemas to C++ classes.
