Unreferenced complexTypes

[skinkie]

Based on a very quick and dirty test, I have found a list of complexTypes which are currently never referenced via an element or as base.

#!/bin/bash
find . -type f -name "*.xsd" | xargs grep -h "complexType name" | sed 's/.*name="\(.*\)".*/\1/g;s/" abstract.*//g' | sort -u | while read i; do
COUNT=`find . -type f -name "*.xsd" | xargs grep -h "type=\"\(.*:\)*${i}\"\|base=\"\(.*:\)*${i}\"" | wc -l`
        if [ "$COUNT" -eq "0" ]; then
                echo ${i}
                find . -type f -name "*.xsd" | xargs grep \"${i}\"
        fi
done

Huge list
Most are xxx_RelStructure ... This is part of the NeTEx XSD design rules, as explained in Part 1 "One-to-many relationships are implemented with an explicit data structure for each relationship. For example, the “StopPlace - quays - Quay” relationship is implemented with an explicit complex structure quays_relStructure."
So the xxx_RelStructure is generally automatically created weh you create xxx in order to use it inside relations

Same for xxxRefStructure (One-to-one relationships are implemented with the Ref mechanism indicated above. There is a data structure and element for referencing each element. For example, StopPointRef of type, StopPointRefStructure.)

This is the explanation... but we can still decide to remove the unused ones now.

@Aurige I don't understand why you would make a complex structure which is never referenced, hence also not within relationships. If the idea is 'future references' that is fine but I would like to make the distinction between intended and garbage.

[Aurige]

That's just the working process, when you create an new object you also create all the service stuff, it(s a kind of template. A bit like when you crate a Class in OO language, you often create all assessors, without knowing if they will be used or not.
But now that we are more stabilised, we can decide to remove all these still unused types.

[skinkie]

I love to see the documentation of your template :-)

[Aurige]

It's in Part 1 document (as mentioned above) but can be complemented if needed ... but that's another topic
I will add this removal of unused types as a discussion point

[skinkie]

Group decision: remove the bloat.

@skinkie How do we progress here?

[skinkie]

We can start cleaning. But lets not do this before the rest is merged.
