Actually, for a type derived by restriction, a GetContentModel method is generated that returns a ContentModel.Default, breaking the base content model. A simple fix is to avoid the generation of the GetContentModel method.

Fixed in pull request #36

There are a couple of bugs related to enum generation.

1. When you have two anonymous enum types defined for attributes within different complex types, the enum only generates for a single one of these comples types (see the example in the attachment)
   SimpleSchema.zip

2. When you have two anonymous enum types defined for elements within different complex types, the enum is not generated at all (please see the example in the attachment)
   SimpleSchemaElement.zip

When linqtoxsd gen is invoked and passed the file path to an XSD which has no configuration file that matches $"{filename}.config" and -a argument is also passed then no output code is generated. Work around: omit the -a flag.

I'm interested in using this to model very large Xmls, but I'm concerned that the library is effectively eagerly reading all the data in, and will take enormous amounts of data.
Is it just a thin layer on top of XDocument? (which I think is largely deferred execution, i.e. IEnumberable<>) or is it a bit more eager?

Generated code doesn't correctly take into account optional enums.

See this excerpt generated from ISO 20022 pain.002.001.03.xsd

        /// <summary>
        /// <para>
        /// Occurrence: optional

        public virtual TransactionIndividualStatus3Code TxSts {
            get {
                XElement x = this.GetElement(System.Xml.Linq.XName.Get("TxSts", "urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:pain.002.001.03"));
                return ((TransactionIndividualStatus3Code)(Enum.Parse(typeof(TransactionIndividualStatus3Code), XTypedServices.ParseValue<string>(x, XmlSchemaType.GetBuiltInSimpleType(XmlTypeCode.String).Datatype))));
            }
            set {
                this.SetElementWithValidation(System.Xml.Linq.XName.Get("TxSts", "urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:pain.002.001.03"), value.ToString(), "TxSts", global::Iso20022.Pain_002_001_03.TransactionIndividualStatus3CodeValidator.TypeDefinition);
            }
        }

You can see in the comments that this field is correctly described as Occurence: optional and Regex: (... TxSts? ...).

Yet the property type is a non-nullable Enum TransactionIndividualStatus3Code.

If you try to read its value, you don't get 0 but an ArgumentNullException because it calls Enum.Parse passing null as the string value (from XTypedServices.ParseValue<string>).

I think a fix would need to:

• Change the return type to a nullable enum.
• Check if the value exists before calling Enum.Parse and return null instead.

Bonus chatter: I am not sure what runtime you support. If you can go with .net core 2.0 / .net standard 2.1 then there's a handy generic Enum.Parse<> that was added.

These are a few bugs I noticed while testing my latest PR and you can reproduce them with the wss.xsd from tests.
I don't see how they would be linked to my changes, so I'm opening this issue.

1. There are tons of enums in this XSD, but for some reason one causes an error. Class FieldDefinition has both a local enum IMEMode and a property with the same name, which of course is a C# error.

2. Inside ViewDefinition, member Query hides an inherited member but is not declared with new, that triggers a C# warnings.
   Here again there are tons of new members in the codegen, not sure why this one is missed.

3. Conversely, member ID of SharedFieldDefinition is declared new although it doesn't hide anything, which is also a C# warning.
   You'll notice that the backing XName field I created triggers the same warning but that's expected because it uses the same IsNew logic as the property itself.

Use the LinqToXsd config -e AIXM_Features.xsd command on the AIXM 5.1.1 specification and a bunch of ISO-related namespaces are not gathered in the output configuration file.

When XSD's are authored following the 'salami slice' pattern, determining the ultimate root element(s) requires manually inspecting the schema which is annoying and tedious, but brute forcing it is possible with the backward inorder tree traversal algorithm.

Impact: add a CLI argument that also requires the XSD file path and then return the name of the root element(s) in the CLI.

Below is my old command line to generate one CS. I tried with gen -c and it generated 2 CS.

How do I do the same with LinqToXsdCore? I only want 1 CS from 4 XSD files.

c:\LinqToXsdBin\LinqToXsd.exe APIDataTypes.xsd APIEvents.xsd APIEventTypes.xsd APIResponse.xsd /fileName:OutputFile.cs

I have an xsd schema set that, when LinqToXsd is executed against the xsd schema set, generates a file that is over 803,000 lines in length. No, I can make it smaller, this is for handling court information. Unfortunately, LinqToXsd can generate the file, but Visual Studio in it's current production iteration cannot handle the resulting near 30M file. VS crashes routinely. Easy fix - generate a single c# file for each xml namespace. In my case this would result in about 40 files, all of which would be handled by VS easily.
Something like a -m switch would be perfect.
Otherwise - awesome tool! Saved me a bunch of work!

I noticed that enum generation is not working when the restriction is an anonymous type of an attribute.

The atom.xsd will show the issue because the textType's type attribute is generated as a string instead of an enum.

Part of it is within XsdToTypesConverter.cs BuildProperty for attribute where name of the type is set to he name of the attribute

            XmlSchemaSimpleType schemaType = attribute.AttributeSchemaType;
            var qName = schemaType.QualifiedName;
            if (qName.IsEmpty) {
                qName = attribute.QualifiedName;

Then later in TypesToCodeDom.cs ProcessProperties enum is only generated if it is an anonymous type:

                    var typeRef = propertyInfo.TypeReference;
                    if (typeRef.IsEnum && string.IsNullOrEmpty(typeRef.Name))
                    {
                        typeRef.Name = $"{propertyInfo.PropertyName}s";
                        CreateNestedEnumType(typeRef);
                    }

Thanks for updating LINQToXsdCore. We used it to generate the C# file.
In my scenario, we have to create WCF Service Contract based on C# generated code (Because client requirement and they not converted to .Net Core). And I am getting error deep in ILinqToXsdTypeManager when I calling the service from WCF Client Code.

I am working with a large set of XSDs (40-50 XSDs, as which sent by chiefengineer) and XML message is created based on these XSDs. C# file is generated from the XSDs (LINQToXsdCore tool)

I coped this C# file and add it in .Net 4.8 Project and create the dll. Most of the unit tests are passing. I used this DLL and create WCF Service. DLL is used to create the OperationContract and custom arguments get passed (not an integer or string, it is custom classes)
In unit test (same solution, not with WCF Client ) , I read the valid XML ,XmlSerializer , Deserialize and pass it to OperationContract as arguments and Objects are fills with data from XML. All is well.

Now I run the WCF service in visual studio and call it from another Visual studio as a WCF client (same way as unit test). I am not referencing the service in project but creating the CustomChannelFactory and passing the config of the service. WCF Service is getting called and I can see it in the debugger and it hit OperationContract .
But Objects are NOT getting fill the xml data , as it is done in the unit test. I can see the raw XML coming through as content but objects are not getting filled. Those objects are getting Null Reference Exception. Untyped and Content have the XML which I sent. See blow.

Everything looks good , service OperationContract getting called but data is not getting filled,
Hope I explained well :) , and I am sure you see this error a thousand times. object are not getting filled but in Unit test , they are. Untyped and Content have the XML.

i am not sure what I am missing and how to debug it. WCF logs are not helpful.
Please let me know if you need more info.

The generated setter for a nullable DateTime looks like this:

        public virtual System.Nullable<System.DateTime> RltdDt {
            get { /* ... */ }
            set {
                this.SetElementWithValidation(System.Xml.Linq.XName.Get("RltdDt", "urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:pain.002.001.03"), value, "RltdDt", global::Iso20022.Pain_002_001_03.ISODate.TypeDefinition);
            }
        }

Trying to remove such an element by setting it to null fails with an exception.
The setter calls SetElementWithValidation with value null and the validation first performed by this method fails, although the code after validation would correctly remove the element upon receiving a null value.

Notice that the situation is slightly worse for an enum, because the generated code passes value.ToString() to SetElementWithValidation and that .ToString() would fail even earlier.

In v3.4.4, I find the generated code is generating duplicated fields in ParentType. This causes CS0108: OneField of ParentType hides inherited member OneField of ChildType.

Sample XSD file:

<xs:complexType name="ParentType">
<xs:complexContent mixed="false">
<xs:extension base="lsr:ChildType">
xs:sequence
<xs:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" name="OneField" type="xs:long"/>
....

XML.xsd are very commonly referenced in other schemas, such as http://docs.oasis-open.org/legaldocml/akn-core/v1.0/os/part2-specs/schemas/xml.xsd

Including them as built-in schema mapping in the library would obviate the need for client code to be generated and used by downstream consumers.

I am very much interested in using this project but I don't seem to be able to find a nuget package for it.

In line 36 of XTypedServices.cs there is missing a check for whether xe is null for ToXTypedElement.

Null is checked in other ToXTypedElement methods but is missing in this one. For example, a check for null is in line 75:

        public static T ToXTypedElement<T>(XElement xe) where T : XTypedElement
        {
            if (xe == null)
            {
                return null;
            }

            T xoSubType = GetAnnotation<T>(xe);

Such a check should be added to line 36:

        public static XTypedElement ToXTypedElement(XElement xe, ILinqToXsdTypeManager typeManager, Type rootType,
            Type contentType)
        {
            
            XTypedElement rootElement = GetAnnotation(rootType, xe);

So that it is like this:

        public static XTypedElement ToXTypedElement(XElement xe, ILinqToXsdTypeManager typeManager, Type rootType,
            Type contentType)
        {
            
            if (xe == null)
            {
                return null;
            }

            XTypedElement rootElement = GetAnnotation(rootType, xe);

XObjectsCore is a runtime requirement for the code generated by this project.

It feels wrong that it references System.CodeDom, which would be better not embedded into our applications.

Do you think it would be hard to correct the layering and have a CodeDom dependency for the code generation only?

linqtoxsd config -e seems to ignore the empty namespace in the XSD file. It does not explicitly create a <Namespace /> configuration element to map an empty namepsace to a CLR type.

The fix implies code generation as well as runtime management of the content model, i.e. XObjectsCore.

Fixed in pull request #36.

Looking at the generated code, I'm a bit surprised that getters systematically use XName.Get().
When parsing files with hundreds if not thousands of repeated tags and attributes, it's a lot of unrequired calls, which are not free as they involve several thread-safe hashtables of weakreferences underneath.

I think it could be a fairly trivial code fix: simply introduce static variable for each element and attribute name, and use that instead of the XName.Get() expression in the code.

Impact analysis of the change

One could be concerned about overall memory usage (when parsing), leaks (XName uses WeakRef and releases namespaces and names once they're not referenced anymore), cost for elements that are not accessed (e.g. large xsd with only a tiny subset accessed at runtime), and initialization time.

For elements, there is no impact at all.
The static ctor already creates every XName and saves it in localElementDictionary and sometimes in contentModel as well.
So the work to instantiate the XNames is already done anyway and they will be kept alive forever.

Attributes are created lazily on first access. They are kept alive forever though, as only full namespaces are collected when unused, not individual names.
Given all the work done anyway on elements, I don't think adding the attributes is a significant change. It should be an all-or-nothing design.
If that's really a concern, it could be done on elements only.

So in summary this change would:

• keep static initialization time constant.
• keep overall memory usage the same.
• reduce code/IL size.
• speed-up runtime access.

Using the latest release 3.3.2, I generated XMLSchema.xsd.cs from XMLSchema.xsd and encountered the following errors:

/XMLSchema.xsd.cs(2992,63,2992,77): error CS1061: 'object' does not contain a definition for 'TypeDefinition' and no accessible extension method 'TypeDefinition' accepting a first argument of type 'object' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

The error seems similar to #10 (comment). You can repeat this by grabbing the XSD and running linqtoxsd on it:

wget https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema.xsd

      /// <summary>
        /// <para>
        /// Occurrence: optional
        /// </para>

        public virtual object lang {
            get {
                XAttribute x = this.Attribute(langXName);
                return XTypedServices.ParseUnionValue(x, lang.TypeDefinition);  <-- error 
            }
            set {
                this.SetUnionAttribute(value, "lang", this, langXName, lang.TypeDefinition); <- error
            }
        }

You can reproduce the problem with the NoVoidTypeOfExpressionsInGeneratedCodeEver test and the Schemas\XSD\W3C XMLSchema v1.xsd schema.

Generated code:
return XTypedServices.ParseUnionValue(x, void.TypeDefinition);
instead of:
return XTypedServices.ParseUnionValue(x, null);

Happens in CreateFieldReference when typeName is an empty string instead of a null value:

Implement generating a FileInfo property on generated types (the ones that map to global elements or complex types or have static Load() methods).

Also add a new public static Load method; one that accepts a FileInfo parameter, which is also saved as an instance property on the generated type.

Example:

public partial class element {
	public FileInfo FileInfo { get; set; }
	// ...
	public static element Load(FileInfo fileInfo)
	{
		var element = XTypedServices.Load<element>(fileInfo.FullName);
		element.FileInfo = fileInfo;

		return element;
	}
}

Sometimes it is good to have the line info, etc. Alternatively, overload which takes XDocument or XElement.

Also, async variants would be appreciated too.

It is understood, that this functionality can be added in consumer code, that's why "nice to have".

Generates:

private static void BuildWrapperDictionary() {
    wrapperDictionary.Add(typeof(OurClientMatters.Models.OurClientMatters.Contracts.ReviewPeriod), typeof(global::OurClientMatters.Models.OurClientMatters.Contracts.periodType));
}

When it should be:

private static void BuildWrapperDictionary() {
    wrapperDictionary.Add(typeof(global::OurClientMatters.Models.OurClientMatters.Contracts.ReviewPeriod), typeof(global::OurClientMatters.Models.OurClientMatters.Contracts.periodType));
}

Sorry, this might be more of a question than an issue.

Is there a way to use this library to parse or write in a streaming fashion?
I noticed the "Known issue and Desiderata" section in wiki include Streaming support based on forthcoming LINQ to XML support. :(

Basically, I'm gonna parse and create documents that have a small "frame" (root tag, a header/footer, a few wrapper tags) and a then small element that's repeated many times (50K+).

If we go back to raw Linq to XML, I suppose the technique would be:

Reading

• Create an XmlReader
• For anything on the path from root to "large" sections: use the reader manually :(
• Anything outside (header/footer), as well as the repeated elements can be made into XElement with XElement.ReadFrom(reader).

Writing

• Anything small and the repeated parts can be created as XElement
• The path from the "large" container up to the root must be made out of XStreamingElement that lazily enumerate their contents when they're serialized.

Linq to XSD

I suppose that today:

• When reading I could use the XTypedElement(XmlReader) ctor to parse XElements parts. Navigating to those parts would be up to my own code.
• When writing I could create typed individual XElement. Building the XStreamingElement path from root to the large parts would be to my own code.

Am I correct?

Do you have any idea for a design that could completely merge streaming support into Linq To XSD that I could help implement?

It appears that the generated code for nullable property getter only inspects if the element exists. It fails when the element exists with attribute "xsi:nil"=true.

Example:
xsd: <xsd:element name="createDate" type="xsd:dateTime" minOccurs="0" nillable="true" />

Incoming xml:

<someType xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" >
      <createDate xsi:nil="true"/>
 </someType>

When accessing the generated createDate property, it throws, as it finds the element, and tries to parse the empty value to DateTime.

As XDocument/XElement are not schema-aware, I'm not even sure which approach for solving this will be more appropriate - inspecting for the nil=true, or using the XElement.IsEmpty to detect the null value.

After the enum generation is completed I would be willing to make this change.

I have to work with XML files provided by vendors that define the enumeration restriction for fields that change somewhat often. This issue is what lead me to find LinqToXsdCore. When an xml enumeration is compiled into a .net enum, it cannot handle XML that comes across with a different value than specified in the schema.

Semantically, the schema says it is invalid. Treating enums as strings solves this, but the reality is that the generated enums are really helpful when producing input to a vendor. They may be useful when consuming a document, but also may never be looked at again.

I like LinqToXsdCore because I can load a document, look at only the sections I need, and save it. If the vendor added entirely new elements without telling me, it works fine in the round-trip.

I can't be the only one that's had this kind of issue with the strict enums and vendor controlled formats. I thought it might be worth while to look into a flexible enumeration strategy instead of compiled enums.

See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/architecture/microservices/microservice-ddd-cqrs-patterns/enumeration-classes-over-enum-types

This defines a Enumeration that is integral with a name (just like regular enums), but for many XML restrictions it probably doesn't even need the integral part.

Code snippets from the above link:

public abstract class Enumeration : IComparable
{
    public string Name { get; private set; }

    public int Id { get; private set; }

    protected Enumeration(int id, string name)
    {
        Id = id;
        Name = name;
    }

    public override string ToString() => Name;

    public static IEnumerable<T> GetAll<T>() where T : Enumeration
    {
        var fields = typeof(T).GetFields(BindingFlags.Public |
                                         BindingFlags.Static |
                                         BindingFlags.DeclaredOnly);

        return fields.Select(f => f.GetValue(null)).Cast<T>();
    }

    public override bool Equals(object obj)
    {
        var otherValue = obj as Enumeration;

        if (otherValue == null)
            return false;

        var typeMatches = GetType().Equals(obj.GetType());
        var valueMatches = Id.Equals(otherValue.Id);

        return typeMatches && valueMatches;
    }

    public int CompareTo(object other) => Id.CompareTo(((Enumeration)other).Id);

    // Other utility methods ...
}

public class CardType : Enumeration
{
    public static readonly CardType Amex = new CardType(1, "Amex");
    public static readonly CardType Visa = new CardType(2, "Visa");
    public static readonly CardType MasterCard = new CardType(3, "MasterCard");

    public CardType(int id, string name)
        : base(id, name)
    {
    }
}

I was thinking about just post-processing the code dom. But after looking into the get/set accessors I decided if I can get this feature to be properly supported in this library that would be much easier.

When adding a second Document element to a MsgHead element defined in the following schema:

	<element name="MsgHead">
		<complexType>
			<sequence>
				<element ref="mh:MsgInfo"/>
				<choice>
					<element ref="mh:Document" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
					<element ref="mh:PatientReport" maxOccurs="unbounded">
						<annotation>
							<documentation>xxx</documentation>
						</annotation>
					</element>
				</choice>
				<element ref="ds:Signature" minOccurs="0"/>
			</sequence>
		</complexType>
	</element>

the previous entry is removed.

This is happening in .\LinqToXsdCore\XObjectsCore\API\ChoiceContentModelEntity.cs when a call is made to this.RemoveChoices (line 20).

The maxOccurs="unbounded" does not seem to be respected.

It's so good that you are carrying on this project, thanks! It is so much better than xsd.exe.

Now that C# has nullable references, do you think that you could add some support?

1. I think this would need to be behind a command-line argument, because unsupported syntax or preprocessor directives would surface in older compiler version.

2. The easy short-term support is to add #nullable disable at the top of generated files.
   This instructs the compiler that code inside this file is unaware of nullable references.
   It avoids issues when the generated C# file is included in a project that is null-aware by default.

3. If possible, it would be awesome to have proper nullable annotations instead.
   You have all the required metadata for that and already do the work for value types.
   Reference types that are optional or part of a choice should be nullable.

Short discussion about the correctness of those annotations

Nullable references are tricky, esp. on complex types that can be built up.
A balance must be achieved between usefulness and correctness.

When an xml file conform to its xsd is read, the annotations are exact.
If not, I think one can accept incorrect nullable annotations on invalid data (garbage in -> garbage out).

About invalid data: reading the docs, I believe linqtoxsd should throw when accessing missing elements, but reading the code I believe it does not? Throwing would solve any discussion regarding the correctness of nullable annotations.

LinqToXsd also allows the creation / writing of xml files. This is more complicated since during construction the xml might not be valid. A required attribute will be null until the code sets its value.

I argue that it's more useful to have the annotation:

• it statically prevent setting invalid element/attribute values.
• it is easy to explain that reading an incomplete document during construction can result in uninitialized values even though the annotation says otherwise. One can say the "required" displayed in doc comments is just as wrong.

Again, this is assuming that linqtoxsd doesn't throw when reading a value that wasn't set (which would make this discussion useless).

Except for LinqToXsd...

Hello,

I've got a naming collision when an element is named Content in the xsd file.

When I generate the model for the following xsd files:
https://www.rixml.org/images/docs/schemas/RIXML-2_5.xsd
https://www.rixml.org/images/docs/schemas/RIXML-Common-2_5.xsd
https://www.rixml.org/images/docs/schemas/RIXML-datatypes-2_5.xsd

With this config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Configuration xmlns="http://www.microsoft.com/xml/schema/linq">
 <CodeGeneration>
   <SplitCodeFiles By="Namespace" />
 </CodeGeneration>

        var rixml = new Research
        {
            researchID = "my-id",
            createDateTime = DateTime.UtcNow,
            language = "eng",
            Product = new[]
            {
                new Product
                {
                    Content = new Content
                    {
                        Title = new Title
                        {
                            TypedValue = "My title"
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        };

The model cannot be used due to the following errors:

• Ambiguity between 'Product.Content' and 'Product.Content'
• 'Content' : member names cannot be the same as their enclosing type

Hello,

According to the help function of the tool, when there are multiple includes/imports are detected, they only get included once. This doesn't seem to be working. Is there any flag I must set to get this to works?

I'm using 143 XSD-files (6,09MB) which end up in +/- 54MB of code. So I really need splitting up the files.
