About

The Xml Schema class generator converts an .xsd xml schema file or a .wsdl soap service description file to C++ classes.

The source code is released under the GNU GPL license.

Implemented features

Each ComplexType definition in the schema file creates one class in the resulting source code. The built-in xml schema types are mapped to native C types. See here for a list of supported types. STL containers are used to create vector types (std::vector). Attribute groups are not supported.

Generated Code

The example below is created by:

$ ./wsdl2cpp -href conf.xsd -overwrite -namespace AJP13 -lt std::list

• Input
  • conf.xsd namespace href 'https://www.alhem.net/1.0/server'
  • schema1/typ.xsd namespace href 'https://www.alhem.net/1.0/server/typ'
  • schema2/typ0.xsd namespace href 'https://www.alhem.net/1.0/typ0'
    
    
• Output
  • Iconf.h
  • Iconf.cpp

Dependencies

• libxml2
• C++ sockets library

Command line options

Usage: ./wsdl2cpp [options] <.wsdl filename>
    -port <portname>       Select portType
    -namespace <ns>        Define a global namespace
    -classname <name>      Soap Client classname
    -lt <type>             Vector type (default: std::vector)
    -overwrite             Replace existing files
