OAL2.1 comment

[Phyllis]

All,

I have started to add support for OAL2.1 in Deep-Sky Planner and I
have a question about the file oal21.xsd.

The path in each include statement assumes a different directory
structure than oal20.xsd. I have changed this in the oal21.xsd that I
plan to ship with my product, and I wonder how others feel about
changing this in the public distribution (i.e., Google Code).

oal20.xsd contained:
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./base/oal_Base.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./extensions/ext_DeepSky.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./extensions/ext_SolarSystem.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./extensions/ext_VariableStars.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./extensions/ext_Imaging.xsd"/>

oal21.xsd contains:
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./openastronomylog21/oal_Base.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./openastronomylog21/ext_DeepSky.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./openastronomylog21/
ext_SolarSystem.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./openastronomylog21/
ext_VariableStars.xsd"/>
<xsd:include schemaLocation="./openastronomylog21/ext_Imaging.xsd"/>

I hope you will comment!

All,

I have completed support for OAL 2.1 and have two other thoughts:

1) The directory structure change affects oal21.xsd and each of the
extension schema files (ext_DeepSky.xsd, ext_imaging.xsd,
ext_SolarSystem.xsd, ext_VariableStars.xsd). For my own purposes, I
have modified all affected files and changed the structure to match
that in OAL 2.0.

2) We should probably have some sample files that developers can use
to test against OAL 2.1. My product does not support images attached
to a session so perhaps someone else can provide a sample file or two.

Comments welcome!

Hi Phyllis,

I just added OAL2.1 into the new OM version and just faced the same problem.
I also changed the file structure, so that it fits me needs.
./oal20.xsd
./openastronomylog20/base/oal_Base.xsd
./openastronomylog20/extensions/<all20Extensions>
./oal21.xsd
./openastronomylog21/base/oal_Base.xsd
./openastronomylog21/extensions/<all21Extensions>


On your second point:
Once I've everything complete in new OM, I can upload an example.

Best

Dirk

Dirk,

Thanks for the reply. My structure looks like this:

./oal21.xsd
./base/oal_Base.xsd
./extensions/<all21Extensions>

I think this was the same as OAL20?? Anyway, I'll look forward to an
example file to test against.

Thanks!
