fibex support

[drZWzheng]

Now the Flexray protocol is widely used in car domain, it has the huge demand to have a tool to parse the XML data format file, but the cantools is not support to parse the format currently. As a participant, i strongly recommended to support parsing Flexray data format.

import canmatrix
arxml is not supported
kcd is not supported
fibex is not supported
xls is not supported
xlsx is not supported
odx is not supported

hi @drZWzheng

pip install lxml

hi @ebroecker
but it can't import file with xml fibex format

Hi @drZWzheng

please provide more context information.

Currently fibex is only for CAN supported.
Do you try to import a flexray-fibex? This would not work because no one ever implemented flexray-support in CANmatrix
If you are trying to import a can-fibex file, are there errors displayed? If so, which errors?

HI @ebroecker

I want to import a flexray-fibex, Do you know some tools which can import the flexray-fibex and parse it.

Hi @drZWzheng

No sorry I don't know any library for this purpose.

It should not be that hard to implement. But I don't have examples for it.

So what would you like to do with it? I mean after parsing. Extract values? Create somr Excel-Sheet or what would you like to do?
