How to load schema, set properties and output string without SDO?
After struggling with installing SDO on the server, I found some information that SDO will not develop and be supported.
How can this be done without SDO?
$das = SDO_DAS_XML::create("$someSchemaFile");
$doc = $das->createDocument();
$root = $doc->getRootDataObject();
$root->Data1 = 'data1';
$root->Data2 = 'data2';
$string = $das->saveString($doc);
Scheme (pseudo)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:cc="http://cc/XMLSchema">
<xsd:element name="SomeName">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="Data1" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="Data2" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

XSD is XML itself, so you have several ways to do this, such as DomDocument . But the simplest way will probably be SimpleXML , it's not that strong, but in most cases you don't need it.
Here's a small example:
$xml = <<<XML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:cc="http://cc/XMLSchema">
<xsd:element name="SomeName">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="Data1" type="xsd:string"/>
<xsd:element name="Data2" type="xsd:string"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element> </xsd:schema>
XML;
$doc = simplexml_load_string($xml);
// get the first xsd:element node with a name-attribute of 'Data1'
$element = $doc->xpath("//xsd:element[@name='Data1']")[0];
// change the name-attribute:
$element->attributes()->name = 'SomeOtherName';
// or even add another attribute:
$element->addAttribute('newAttribute', 'newAttributeValue');
// and spit it out as XML again:
echo $doc->asXML();
Hope this helps, as I'm not really sure what you mean. But as far as I understood your question, you are just looking for an alternative / easy way to manipulate the XML file.
