Task: Remove xsdcpp

Table of Contents

This page documents a task in the Decide the XML strategy for ORE documents story. It captures the goal, current status, acceptance, and any notes or results.

1. Goal

Delete the generated domain, the sibling-checkout wiring, the two post-regeneration patches and the knowledge page that records the pin. Last, because nothing may depend on the generated binding by then.

2. Status

Now Nothing.
Waiting on Nothing.
Next Nothing.

3. Acceptance

  • No code includes the generated domain header.
  • The build no longer needs the sibling checkout.
  • reapply_export_macros.py and reapply_ore_lexical_form.py are gone.
  • The full gate passes with the generated files deleted.

4. Plan

(Implementation strategy. Written when work starts; key decisions are distilled into the parent story's * Decisions at close, but the plan itself stays — it is the historical record of what we did.)

5. Measurements

Every number this task claims about a tree, with the command that produced it and the commit it was measured at. A number without both is not a measurement, because a clean-up record describes a tree and trunk moves under a branch: a consumer count, a gate's component count and a suite's size all change with no code changing, and the reader of a bare number cannot tell which tree it came from. Where the raw output matters, put it in an evidence/ file beside the task and name that file in the Command column.

10. Result

The generated domain, the sibling-checkout wiring, the two regeneration patches, the golden dataset and the knowledge page are deleted. PR #3565 did this together with the conventions move. No product file includes the generated domain. The XML suites, the family census and the drift check pass.
