Re: ebXML CC Dictionary - steps to make Business Documents

[Philip Goatly <philip.goatly@bolero.net>]

Hi there,
    At bolero we have been generating DTDs etc automatically for about 18
months - so we have a large amount of know how in this area. In addition I
have had the experience of designing/writing program generators etc. for
some 10 years of my career . One significant detail you might like to
consider is the following XML is fundamentally a hierarchy, so the input to
the XML output should be capable of being represeted as a hierarchy. As such
you must be able to detect loops in the hierarchy - those which are there
because you need them - to express recursion, if so desired - and others
which are 'modelling' errors.

There should be no difficulty in generating DTDs/Schemas from spreadsheets -
or any other type of input.

Just some logic and programming - as always :-}

Cheers, Phil
