[eclipselink-dev] FYI: XSD for EclipseLink sessions.xml

["Doug Clarke" <douglas.clarke@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was working on upgrading some examples I have to use EclipseLink. As part of this I was upgrading some sessions configuration (sessions.xml) files and wanted to have the XML editor in the Eclipse IDE provide me insight into what values can be configured and to validate my instance documents. To make all of this work I did 2 things:

 

1. Published the 1.0 (incubation) XSD at: http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/xsds/eclipse_persistence_sessions_1_0.xsd

 

2. Modified the header of my sessions.xml file to leverage this XSD:

 

<?xml version = '1.0' encoding = 'UTF-8'?>

<sessions version="1.0" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"

xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/xsds/eclipselink_sessions_1_0.xsd">

<session xsi:type="database-session">

<name>dynamic-employee-project</name>

<logging xsi:type="eclipselink-log">

<log-level>fine</log-level>

</logging>

<primary-project xsi:type="xml">

testing/dynamic/dynamic-employee-project.xml

</primary-project>

</session>

</sessions>

I will add a brief discussion of XSD publication to the agenda for Wednesday's developer meeting where we can discuss the approach and fine tune any location/namespace information. I assume we'll also want to publish the current deployment map XSD and adjust the runtime to use the provided namespace location.
