Re: Proposal for a (Java) community test suite for SDO

[Dan Murphy <dm...@googlemail.com>]

Hi Simon,
Yes, I do think and hope that some of this work will be useful to all & not
just the Java folks :)
I'm sure that the Java CTS would need to include tests that serialise to and
from xml documents and XSDs. These could be re-used to test different
language implementations (or based on what is in the existing interop
suite).
I've not done any C++ for 7 years (even then I was a novice). So, if you're
volunteering to collaborate on the C++ or PHP side, I'm sure we can enhance
them and get a richer set of interop tests if needed. It would be daft to
duplicate tests in both interop and a Java SDO CTS :)
As you say, passing serialised SDO would be core for cross language tests...
I don't think we want to get into JNI from java into C++ passing SDOs 'cos I
don't envisage people doing this.

Cheers for the comments
Dan

was really difficulty switching my mind into Java mode to run the java side
of things so having a Java SDO expert on the case will be excellent.
