My problems with Oracle Schema Processor for C++ :(

Question

Dear ;) Oracle XML team and others,
the followings are really inconvenient with the C++ schema processor:
-it doesn't even support the Candidate
Recommendation (OK, the Java version does
support it, and you can use XSU and upgrade your schemas later when the C++ will also
support it.)
-you cannot put comments in the schema, just after the <xsd:schema> element.
-it's checking the attribute use="required"
when an attribute is declared in a
complexType, but it doesn't check
when an attribute is referenced or, which could be much more useful, when an
attributegroup is referenced, and it contains
use attributes. (I tried XMLSpy and it was correct. But I need an API or a C++ tool.)
I'm really awaiting this schema processor to be updated (maybe on April 14 the W3C Schema recommendation ;))
-it supports "import" but I had problems with "include" (this looked like a bug, but after I'd posted it, noone replied :(. Maybe because the C++ processor is kind of "obsolete")
Will the C++ version be updated? (When?)
I cannot use Java because I try to integrate with a C++ application. I was looking for
other products, but I only found XSV, Java XSD processors and built-in tools. It's quite sad that there isn't a C++ implementation available. :( Can anyone help me?

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<schema
xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace = "http://www.CarDealers.com/">
<!-- this should fail -->
<element name="Car">
</element>
</schema>
and it works!
Can you provide some examples?
Thx!
