Hi

I read that all content is stored as XML in the database. Are XML schemas available for the classes? If so, what's the best way to access them? This would assist in integrating ezPublish with other software.

Thanks
Jason

Jason,

Where did you read that? There is occasional use of XML in some fields to support some complex datatypes and the xmltext datatype. For lots of others there is no xml involved.

To access the data, I would suggest you to write a soap service and not access the database tables directly.

Hi Paul

I read it here:
http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/general_information/what_is_ez_publish/the_main_key_features_of_ez_publish

At the bottom of the article:

"XML handling
All content in eZ publish is stored as XML."

Thanks for clearing that up; a SOAP service sounds good.

Regards
Jason
