SourcePro Users: HydraExpress 4.3.1 is certified with SourcePro Edition 10.
"-1" in an HTTP message no longer causes a system crash. (HYRUNTIME-2118)A sequence of multiple choices will now generate code that properly sets the choice enums for each choice element. (HYEXPRESS-1120)

Fix problems with code generation of classes from model groups within a top-level group.
Add ability to set names with config file that depends on namespace.
Changed value of xsi:type to be qualified name of default name for class. This ensures that the prefix will be consistent with the marshalled document.
SourcePro Users: LEIF 1.0.0 is certified with SourcePro Edition 4, Update 1.
SourcePro Users: LEIF's SourcePro binaries are built with an optimization turned ON for atomic operations. If, instead of using the SourcePro binaries provided with LEIF, you build the libraries for SourcePro Edition 4 update 1, then you must set to yes the RCB Advanced Question for turning on atomic handle body reference counting. If you fail to set atomic handle-body reference counting to yes, the binaries used by the LEIF server will be non-functional.
SourcePro Users on MSVC7: In addition, after installing SourcePro Edition 4, Update 1, you must make a minor modification in the header file rw/serial/StreamTraits.h. The following code block can be found at the top of the StreamTraits.h file:
#if defined (_MSC_VER) && (_MSC_VER >= 1300)
extern template class RWTCountingBody<RWMutexLock>;

which will need to be modified with this change:
#if defined (_MSC_VER) && (_MSC_VER >= 1300) && !defined(RW_POINTER_ATOMIC_HANDLE_BODY)

This change is required to compile successfully with MSVC7 when atomic operations are enabled.
This version of HydraExpress supports a subset of the features defined by the XML Schema specification that is a W3C Recommendation, 2 May 2001. This specification can be found online at
http://www.w3c.org/TR/xmlschema-0/
This support for a static API is available only with HydraExpress services (code generated services and servlets) via the interface provided by the HydraExpress xmlbinding library.
The following XML Schema features are supported in this release:
Named and anonymous complex type definitions
Complex type definitions with all, sequence and choice content models
Complex type definitions with simple content
Complex type derivations by restriction and extension (some limitations)
Element and attribute declarations
Simple types and simple type restrictions (restrictions not validated)
Element declarations with occurrence constraints greater than 1
Element declarations for optional elements (occurrence constraint of 0)
Default values for attributes and elements
Attribute group declarations
Group declarations with non-recurring sequence content model
Element and attribute references
Nil values
Namespace qualification of top-level elements and type definitions
Namespace qualification of qualified attributes and local elements
Schema in multiple documents using the include and import features
Any type, any element, and any attribute
Customizable mapping for element, attribute and complex type names
Customizable C++ namespace mapping for selected XML namespace URIs
Flexible type mapping for all 44 built-in types
Command-line option to generate API's with a STL-based interface
Validation of simple type facets through isValid()
Substitution groups
Union groups
Limited support for key/keyref
Limited support for complex schema types derived by restriction
Restricted types that have more restrictive facets, such as restricting the value set of a type
Restrictions which change the schema type, but do not result in a change in the mapped C++ type, such as restricting an xsd:string to an xsd:NCName
Named model groups
This version of HydraExpress does not support the following features defined by the XML Schema specification that is a W3C Recommendation, 2 May 2001. This specification can be found online at
http://www.w3c.org/TR/xmlschema-0/
Robust name conflict resolution
Mixed Content
Unique and unique functionality of key/keyref
HydraExpress has limited support for complex schema types derived by restriction. Specifically, the following constructs are unsupported.
Prohibiting a previously optional type
Restricting maxOccurs from a value greater than one or unbounded to one occurrence
Restrictions that change the C++ mapped type, such as restricting from anyType
Limited support of any within a choice. Any is supported within choice as the only choice.
Validation of a subset of user defined facets on simple types. Due to the product's design of representing various types with appropriate C++ types, facets that rely on the string representation of the data cannot be validated. For example, if a floating point number had a pattern facet that required that numbers have two to four decimal digits, HydraExpress cannot validate this facet since the conversion loses this information. Unsupported facets include the pattern and enumeration facets for all converted types since they require comparisons with the string version of the data. Also unsupported are the fractionDigits and totalDigits facets on float and double instances, since this information is lost as well.
Validation of the basic types directly. Type conversions implicitly validate the string being converted but for restrictions on strings only the user-defined facets are validated.
Full support for optional and nillable elements through the generic interfaces. When setting members through set() and object() the flag indicating the selection is not set. The setXXX APIs in the DataObject class use these generic methods and will thus not work correctly for optional or nillable elements.
The use of the word "choice" in an XML schema may result in a naming conflict, since HydraExpress generates an enumeration named choice for the first choice element of the <choice> declaration.
A workaround is to map a schema's choice element to another name, such as AltChoice, using the mapping element of the HydraExpress project file. For more information on creating customized mappings, see "Creating Customized Mappings" in the HydraExpress XML Binding Development Guide.
