But my objects are organizzed in a different way. So I

Hi Mario,

You want to take ST objects, transform them into an XML file, send them to another application and that application re-creates the objects or uses the XML file?

Also, is the other app ST or other language?

Hi tc!
I don't know nothing obout the other application...Only tha will take my xml file in input.
I want to create classes from the xsd file. Then, at run time, I will create the appropriate instances from my 'xml classes' and set the values of attributes and then I will send to the objects the method abtXmlPrintString.
I think to create the classes from the xsd (there is more than one xsd file) because is the file tha contains the complete structure of the real xml that I need to produce. The "real xml" is a subset of xsd, only the attributes with values are required.
The xsd files are very large and have a clomplex structur and very importan along the time they may change. May be the structure can change or may be a new fields will required... Like a table on a DB .
