We're migrating from 11.3 to 11.7. Like many others, we create quite a bit of development tooling to fill the gaps in OpenEdge. One thing we use extensively is the "cross-reference" outputs from the compiler (XREF XML). There are no tools from Progress that make use of this xref data after it is generated (see Progress KB - Does Progress have a Tool for analysing the output to XREF-XML? ). But we created our own tools, and use the data to guide our software development, since it allows us to see where certain programs are referenced in code, and where database schema is referenced as well. After generating xref xml output from the new OE 11.7 I noticed that the xml schema namespace was changed. It is now "uri:schemas-progress-com:XREFD:0005" rather than "uri:schemas-progress-com:XREFD:0004". Based on my experiences with other third-party vendors, the schema namespace has significance, and a change in the namespace is done for a reason. Moreover, there are typically reference materials that can be used to find out more about a given xml namespace or schema. For all my searching, I'm not finding google hits about either the new namespace ("uri:schemas-progress-com:XREFD:0005") or the old one (uri:schemas-progress-com:XREFD:0004). Can someone point me to some reference materials? In particular I'd like to know what the differences are that prompted the creation of the new namespace. Thanks, Davikd
