Re: Any XML developers out there?

Hi Clive! How's the course going?

All of the above, plus, as a data modeller, I store my models & metamodels in XML.

2. How does your organisation "hold" its XML
2.1 In "flat files"?
2.2 In some standard database e.g. Oracle?
2.3 Other? (please specify)
Again - all of the above. And we also hold it in the CVS repository for software builds.

Hmmm... I haven't really got any particular things to add to benefits & problems - but I'm not a huge fan of maintaining my models in XML, as I'm a graphical person - so I prefer modelling tools. So, one issue I have is trying to import & export the xml into various bits of software.

Hope this helps, anyway.
