ABOUT
The main purpose of the Schemacompiler is to automatically generate
compiler front-ends for different XML dialects. Given an XML schema,
the schemacompiler will generate an abstract grammar and some aspect
code for JastAdd, as well as a JavaCC parser description. The
generated compiler may then be extended with more aspects, and
possibly new abstract grammar rules, to form a complete compiler.


USAGE
$ java GenCompiler [-d dir] [-o outfile] schema

options:
        -d dir          directory where generated files are put. 
                        Will be created if not already exists.
                        Default is 'examples/x3d'.
                        
        -o outfile      Name for generated grammar files.
                        Default is 'x3d'.


EXAMPLE

$ ant
$ java GenCompiler examples/x3d-3.0.xsd 
$ cd examples/x3d/
$ ant

Will generate a compiler for x3d in the x3d subdirectory. This
generated front-end together with some cupplied code is then built to
form a compiler for x3d models.

NOTE! The supplied code in OBB.java and BoundingBox.jrag depends on
the jme package from http://www.jmonkeyengine.com/

There are two main programs supplied:
$ java PrettyPrint ../workpiece.x3d 
will just print out an x3d representation.
$ java -cp ../../tools/jme.jar OBB ../workpiece.x3d 
will compute bounding boxes (both AABB and OBB) and print out the 
characteristics.
