read XML xml element with REGEXP
Hi, I would need to read an xml element from an xml file to a local variable. Please could you help me with a shell script to get so? Considering that I have a file called file.xml like below:
<header>
<description>This is the description</description>
<content>This is the content</content>
</header>
What I'd like is to assign the value of "description" tag ("This is the description") to a local variable.
I guess this could be done by usig regular expressions...
Thanks in advance.

xsd(1) xsd(1)
NAME
xsd - Mono's utility for generating schema or class files
SYNOPSIS
xsd <schema.xsd> /classes [options]
xsd <schema.xsd> /dataset [options]
xsd <assembly>.dll|<assembly>.exe [options]
xsd <instance.xml> [<instance.xml> ...] [options]
DESCRIPTION
xsd is a tool for intended to complement the XML serialization support of Mono. It can do the following tasks:
Generate serializable classes
From a given XML schema, generate a class that can be used to read and write xml documents that conform that schema (/classes
option).
Generate typed datasets
From a given XML schema, generate a typed DataSet class that can be used to read and write xml documents that conform that schema
(/dataset option).
Generate XML schemas
From a given assembly and an optional type name, generate an XML schema that can be used to validate the xml documents that can be
obtained by serializing objects of that type. If no type is provided, xsd generates a schema for all types in the assembly. When
specifying the assembly name do not include the file extension (.dll or .exe). xsd will look for the assembly using the standard
assembly loading rules.
Infer XML schemas
From a given set of XML documents, infer the XML schema that can be used to validate those documents.
OPTIONS
The following options are available:
/element:name /e:name
Specifies the name of the XML schema element for which a class or a dataset has to be generated.
/namespace:name /n:name
Specifies the namespace of the XML schema element for which a class or a dataset has to be generated.
/language:name /l:name
Specifies the programming language to use for the generated code. The only supported languages are CS (C#) and VB (Visual
Basic.NET).
/generator:type,assembly /g:type,assembly
Indicates xsd.exe to use custom CodeDomProvider to generate code. The type name must be full name. Assembly name is a local file
name that is going to be loaded. The specified Type must have the default constructor.
/outputdir:path /o:path
Specifies the directory where to generate the code or schemas.
/type:name /t:name
Specifies the full name of the type (including namespace) for which to generate the XML schema.
/help /h
Show usage help.
