It does not seem to like "xsd:anyType" and Include

[PRTGC]

Hi...
I'm trying to generate from the vmware vim25 wsdl..

The structures from the included files do not always get generated

         <include schemaLocation="core-types.xsd" />

pub type HostConnectFaultFault = HostConnectFault;

error[E0412]: cannot find type `HostConnectFault` in this scope
   --> src\vim25.rs:637:34
    |
637 | pub type HostConnectFaultFault = HostConnectFault;
    |                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ not found in this scope

It has a lot of structs based on 'xsd:anyType:

   <complexType name="DynamicArray">
      <sequence>
         <element name="val" type="xsd:anyType" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
      </sequence>
   </complexType>
   <complexType name="DynamicData">
      <sequence>
      </sequence>
   </complexType>
   <complexType name="DynamicProperty">
      <sequence>
         <element name="name" type="xsd:string" />
         <element name="val" type="xsd:anyType" />
      </sequence>
   </complexType>
   <complexType name="ArrayOfDynamicProperty">
      <sequence>
         <element name="DynamicProperty" type="vim25:DynamicProperty" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
      </sequence>
   </complexType>
   <complexType name="KeyAnyValue">
      <complexContent>
         <extension base="vim25:DynamicData">
            <sequence>
               <element name="key" type="xsd:string" />
               <element name="value" type="xsd:anyType" />
            </sequence>
         </extension>
      </complexContent>
   </complexType>

Which produces:

pub struct DynamicProperty {
	#[yaserde(rename = "name", prefix = "nsi2", default)]
	pub name: String, 
	#[yaserde(rename = "val", prefix = "nsi2", default)]
	pub val: AnyType, 
}

  --> src\vim25.rs:121:11
    |
121 |     pub val: AnyType, 
    |              ^^^^^^^ not found in this scope

Any thoughts on work-arrounds ?
Thanks

Hi JR,

Unfortunately the yaserde framework does not seem to support an Any type (or something similar to Value in serde_json).

This means you need to create structs for these fields by hand.

To get the code to compile, you can include a minimal AnyType:

#[derive(Debug, Default, YaSerialize, YaDeserialize, Clone)]
pub struct AnyType;

You may try an upstream feature request to include support for such a field type.

Kind regards,
Marcel
