<h3 class="section">8.7 Invoking xml2ag</h3>
<a name="index-xml2ag"></a>
<a name="index-XML-to-AutoGen-Definiton-Converter"></a>
<p>This program will convert any arbitrary XML file into equivalent
AutoGen definitions, and invoke AutoGen.
The template used will be derived from either:
</p><ul>
<li> The <strong>–override-tpl</strong> command line option
</li><li> A top level XML attribute named, "<code>template</code>"
</li></ul>
<p>One or the other <strong>must</strong> be provided, or the program will
exit with a failure message.
</p>
<p>The <em>base-name</em> for the output will similarly be either:
</p><ul>
<li> The <strong>–base-name</strong> command line option.
</li><li> The base name of the <samp>.xml</samp> file.
</li></ul>
<p>The definitions derived from XML generally have an extra layer
of definition. Specifically, this XML input:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example"><mumble attr="foo">
mumble-1
<grumble>
grumble, grumble, grumble.
</grumble>mumble, mumble
</mumble>
</pre></div>
<p>Will get converted into this:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">mumble = {
grumble = {
text = 'grumble, grumble, grumble';
};
text = 'mumble-1';
text = 'mumble, mumble';
};
</pre></div>
<p>Please notice that some information is lost. AutoGen cannot tell that
"grumble" used to lie between the mumble texts. Also please note that
you cannot assign:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">grumble = 'grumble, grumble, grumble.';
</pre></div>
<p>because if another "grumble" has an attribute or multiple texts,
it becomes impossible to have the definitions be the same type
(compound or text values).
