<typemap> Declaration

---

The customization values in <typemap> binding declarations are used to map a specific XSD type or a list of XSD types separated by space to a C type. This can be done at global or schema level. This mapping configuration can be used to preserve the format of floating point numbers after decoding and reencoding.

Usage

<typemap>
 
	[<xsdtype>. . .<xsdtype>]
 
	[<ctype>. . .<ctype>]
 
       ...
 
</typemap>
 

 

<xsdtype> is used to specify the XSD Type being mapped, and <ctype> is used to specify the C Type. For example, to map xsd:decimal, xsd:double and xsd:float types to string:

<typemap>
 
	<xsdtype>decimal double float</xsdtype>
 
	<ctype>string</ctype>
 
</typemap>
 

It is possible to specify multiple mappings.
