xml binding for structured document [message #205167]

Hi,

I am part of a team developing a plugin for eclipse. We need the user to
be able to edit xml documents while they are using the plugin and I would
obviously like to use the structured text editor for this. We also want to
provide alternative ways to edit this information, a multipage editor with
a structured text editor tab is a very good fit for this.

However, we do not want to navigate the DOM structure from this other page
or in the rest of the plugin. The natural approach for this is to use some
xml-binding tool to generate the java model from the schemas, then to bind
the xml documents to the structure using the DOM provided by the
structured text editor model. I cannot believe that we are the first group
to require a facility like this so my question is: what are the approaches
other groups have tried?

Jae,

You could use EMF or some other technology:

Binding XML to Java
< http://www.theserverside.com/tt/articles/article.tss?l=Bindi ngXMLJava>
Tutorial: Generating an EMF Model using XML Schema
< http://help.eclipse.org/help33/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. emf.doc/tutorials/xlibmod/xlibmod.html>

Some folks recently asked about integration between EMF and the SSE
DOM. There are EMF to DOM adapters, but they require a lot of hand
coding as I understand it. You might want to search the newsgroup for
that thread:
