XML Java Data bindings -- alpha release candidate

[Yuzo Kanomata <yuzok@ics.uci.edu>]

Hi All,

Well, I had a setback yesterday, but I have an alpha release of the XML 
Java bindings. It looks really stable although I would like to have some 
sanity checks in the XML Schema generated. I did some testing and it has 
worked out okay for me.

I have placed the zip file in two locations:

1. in the tools directory at data_bindings.zip for those using the Solaris 
account, and

2. off the URL: http://www.ics.uci.edu/~yuzok/data_bindings.zip for those 
running remotely off windows machines.

In the zip file are all the javadocs for the bindings, library jar files to 
use them, the bindings jar (xmltypes.jar), the src files.

I also included a sample program which should help you work with it. It 
examines a gxl file (arg1) and prints out a portion of the contents. If you 
give it (arg2) it will change all the Node ids in the gxl file arg1 and 
create a new gxl file containing the changed Node ids in your second 
argument (arg2).

Rob, look at the code in BindingTest.java. It should have most everything 
you need to build the Outline view from a gxl document. The rest is easy 
pickings from the data binding.

Caveat. This is alpha, and I need to have it tested. Please feel free to 
test using the BindingTest with the single argument against the gxl test 
files you have so far.

I'd like to know where it fails.
