Overcome fear

Have you ever wondered about importing the Voice XML Schema (see http://www.w3.org/TR/voicexml21/) into an Eclipse EMF model? Well, I have, and the result was a bunch of really annoying errors that came out after about 3 minutes of CPU intense work.

Errors I wasn't prepared to. Just for being sure of what my eyes saw I validated the VXML XSD file (using XSV)... no errors found... mmmmhhh...

What to do next? Two options:
  • find why the Eclipse XML parser (I suspect it is Xerces) isn't working and fix it (I can only imagine the divine punishment I deserved by only thinking of it...) or try to adjust the XML Schema to avoid the errors (if you wanna give it a try I warn you that XML Schema is very hard not only to write but just to understand);
  • google the web to find a Good Samaritan who already solved this

You know? Only one person can solve this. His name is Tim Myer and I want to thank him for his really helpful post. Thank you Tim!

And you folks, whatareyouwaitingfor?!?! Go check Tim's post to make out of this dreadful situation and easily overcome your fear!
