jason, you forgot the source folder.
“java -jar org.splink.AsBeanGen.jar mydtd.dtd source-folder package implicit-getters”

about asbeangen open source: i need to polish the sources at least a bit before publishing it. Because i’m currently pretty busy with a deepsplink update this might take some time…

> invoke it with “implicit-getters” as last argument.

java -jar org.splink.AsBeanGen.jar mydtd.dtd package implicit-getters

Throws an “arguments are missing” error.

to explain why I’m asking for OpenSource (aside from the obvious)

I’m working on a solution where I need to hook a changing XML feed to a persistent AS3 datamodel, when I update the feed I correlate the model against the in-coming feed, so I can update Flex views over databinding.

Thanks, any plans to go opensource with AsBeanGen?

Yes, i have updated asbeangen. here is the donwload link. it now outputs implicit getters if you invoke it with "implicit-getters" as last argument. Furthermore you can define interfaces ( INTERFACE MyInterface:class1,class2 ) you can check out deepsplink whose config is asbeangen generated. It uses the interface feature. I also fixed some of the stuff Jonathan mentioned (recursion, node names with _ or - chars)

Hi, I was wondering if you’d made any new updates to this, or if you’re open to collaboration / opensourcing the code now?

Good work so far.
Thanks.

generating dtd from the as beans would be great and it actually has been on my todo list for quite some time, but as it’s a complex task and i’m quite busy at the moment, i guess it will take some time until i can start to implement it.
i already knew about the recursion issue but hadn’t any time yet to fix it. maybe i’ll find some time around christmas ;) i will also add the stripping of ‘-’ chars to my todos. hopefully i can release another version early next year – maybe even open source it (after i cleaned up the code a bit)

another question….

once I have the Data objects and manipulate them, is there anyway to generate a new XML object from the as3 structure?

another issue….

if a DTD element has a – in it’s name, the beangen doesn’t strip it out and causes lots of headaches in the as3 code.

grrrrrr.

Broken code is:
