Dingo, a Schema Compiler for .NET, ships alpha release
Dingo is a new open-source alpha-level schema compiler for .NET. It offers a few features not found within the XmlSerializer/XSD.exe tool stack, such as the ability to plug in source generators for particular classes, and it takes a different approach to the code generated, preferring interfaces and concrete implementation classes than classes with public fields.
Features (as described by the author of the project):- compile schema with XmlSerialization support
- compile schema without XmlSerialization support
- compile schema with interfaces and concrete classes
- compile schema without XmlSerialization support with interfaces and concrete classes
- provides a plugin API to register a source generator for a specific interface or baseclass
- you can provide your own license for the generated source
- Apache 2.0 license
- design is similar to Apache jaxme (an implementation of the Java API for XML Binding, the equivalent of XmlSerializer and XSD.exe in the Java world)
The author reports, "In the next few days, I will add more documentation, examples and a comparison of Mono XSD, MS XSD and Dingo."
The alpha of Dingo is now available for download from sourceforge, and the is available for visitation.

Documentation is non-existent
I know this project is only in alpha, but I wish they included some sort of documentation! This is probably why a good chunk of open-source projects get neglected because early adopters can't second guess the intent of the developers due to the lack of documentation.

This is probably why a good chunk of open-source projects get neglected because early adopters can't second guess the intent of the developers due to the lack of documentation. Paolo del Mundo I'm working on the documentation now, but it will take a couple of weeks to write up some decent documentation. I totally understand the lack of documentation in many OSS projects, but honestly writing good documentation is hard. I'm also a committer on Jakarta JMeter and good documentation takes a lot of effort. To me, writing great documentation is harder than writing good code. Check back in a few days. I hope to get a basic comparison of MS Xsd and dingo up over the weekend. If you have any specific questions, feel free to post a bug entry or a message to the forum.

Paolo del Mundo I just posted a short article comparing MS xsd, Mono xsd and dingo. More documentation is coming.

Paolo del Mundo As requested, there's a bit more documentation on the site now, including a better comparison of XSD to Dingo and a better introduction.
