extracting information from a duration attribute
Hi
I have XML schema with xsd:duration attribute in it.
Is there a convenient tool in xercesc that can help parsing durations?
Ie xsd:duration type. I have investigated the XMLDateTime class which
has a parseDuration() on it but there is nothing that can be used to
retrieve the parsed data.
So to get the duration time in seconds it looks to me like I will have
to write code to parse things like: 'P1Y2M3DT10H30M' manually? I have
tried getString() which is supposed to return the value in decimals but
that just returns the 'P1Y2M3DT10H30M' back to me.
Any suggestions really appreciated, Martin.

Hi Martin,
nothing that I know of inside xerces-c. We are currently
implementing XPath2 module for xerces-c. We have internal classes that do
this. Check out software.decisionsoft.com and look for Pathan 2. It is
alpha and we about to break it because of the newly released WD spec but I
think it should help you.
