You manage XML parsing in UFDL by applying the xml_schema construct.

xml_schema [: <xml_schema option>] { <XML Schema elements> };

The XML Schema Options

The following XML schema options are available:

• output_encoding - Use this option to specify the type of encoding used. See the official Java SE Documentation from Oracle for information regarding supported encodings.

  xml_schema : output_encoding("UTF-8") { // ... }

• schemaLocation - Use this option to specify the location of a schema that contains qualified schema constructs.

  xml_schema : schemaLocation("http://example.com mydocument.xsd") { // ... }

• handle_as_string - Use this option to specify any other data type to be handled as a string data type. The example below results in all decimal data type to be handled as string.

  xml_schema : handle_as_string("decimal") { // ... }

Note!

Only one XML schema option can be used.
