Hi,

XMI is a subset of XML with some more well-defined behavior.
I wrote a tool that can process XML files exhibiting certain XMI properties.

the repo is here: https://github.com/peteruhnak/xmi-analyzer

I don't know if Usman had chance to work with it in practice, but if Synectique has any feedback or feature requests then let me know.

You are right that if you have XML Schema (or model-compliant XMI), then processing the XML can be fully automated.
Unfortunately implementing full support for that is quite a lot of work, that's why my xmi-analyzer takes shortcuts.

I suggest you give it a try, or send me an example of your XML file and maybe we can improve it.

XSD is wanted, but nowhere in sight, maybe Monty (current mastermind behind XML-Parser) may have an idea of the complexity of it?

Peter
