DataSet vs NewDataSet

[immesys]

I'm using code based on TimeSeriesPlatformLibrary/Samples/AdvancedPublish.cpp which constructs the metadata in the code rather than using an external XML file. When I subscribe I am getting an XML document that looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<DataSet>
  <xs:schema id="DataSet" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:ext="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
    <xs:element name="DataSet">
      <xs:complexType>
        <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
          <xs:element name="DeviceDetail">
            <xs:complexType>
              <xs:sequence>
etc etc

Rather than the metadata I expect and get from OpenPDC which looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<NewDataSet>
  <xs:schema id="NewDataSet" xmlns="" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata">
    <xs:element name="NewDataSet" msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true">
      <xs:complexType>
        <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
          <xs:element name="DeviceDetail">
            <xs:complexType>
              <xs:sequence>
etc etc

Notice DataSet vs NewDataSet. How can I alter the AdvancedPublish example to generate metadata following the NewDataSet schema? I have an external program which is expecting a NewDataSet

[ritchiecarroll]

Line 1475 of SubscriberConnection.cpp calls the function which creates the XML:

metadata->WriteXml(serializationBuffer);

The function being called defines a default parameter for the schema name:

void WriteXml(std::vector<uint8_t>& buffer, const std::string& dataSetName = "DataSet") const;

To control this, we would need to add a property to DataPublisher to set the desired value - however, this makes it even more likely that a user would change this just because they could. My first suggestion would be to have to the external program not depend on the schema name.

Thanks, Ritchie

Ok, I can alter the external program, assuming the actual schema is the same and only the name is the difference
