  Fri Dec 14 10:49:49 2007 SREZIC [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: Option to quite the "mistake: unused tags" warnings
I have currently the situation where only a subset of a large perl hash is specified in a XML schema and thus only this subset should be converted to XML. Currently there's a warning that some tags are unused. It would be nice if this warning could be ceased by an XML::Compile option. Regards, Slaven

The check is a safe-guard to help users to do "the correct thing"(TM) Presumably, most people really need that help. Personally, I have an aversion to the idea that some of the hash data does need to be transmitted, and part of it does not. This must be a breach of abstraction. It is easy to fulfil your wish, but the question is whether it is smart to allow it. -- Regards, MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Overmeer MSc MARKOV Solutions Mark@Overmeer.net solutions@overmeer.net http://Mark.Overmeer.net http://solutions.overmeer.net

Think of the possibilities: with XML::Compile it is possible to write multiple schema files to create different views of the same data set, when converting from perl to XML. Currently I have a Relax NG schema file which is converted to xsd using trang (Relax NG schemas are human-writable, in contrast to XML schemas) and with that I can easily control what should go into the XML created from a perl hash. I can also think of systems where a user has a hash mixed with public and private members where the XML only should get the public ones.
