I'm looking for open-source projects that make use of two things: (1) C++ and (2) XML data binding. For those who don't know, data binding tools make use of XML schema and code generators such as Codesynthesis xsd, Liquid Technologies. I know CIAO/DAnCE project, an implementation of CORBA Component Model that uses XML Schema Compiler (XSC) but I'm hoping to find more.
I have tried http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/xsd/ a few months back and I thought the resulting C++ interface was pretty clean. (It's style is similar to STL / boost APIs)
Other than that the gSOAP toolkit appears to have something too. ( http://www.cs.fsu.edu/~engelen/soapdoc2.html#tth_sEc1.4 )
Some open source projects that use Codesynthesis XSD are listed on this wiki page:

I have an application that is written in C++ and would like to offer the user the possibility to have a VBA-programming interface (not dissimilar from the one in Excel). Is there the possibility to do that? Does a set of libraries exists for this? Is it very difficult to do?
Yes it is possible, but do regard it as being extremely difficult. As a starter for ten, your application will need a comprehensive Component Object Model interface. At that point, you would be able to use VBScript, so it might be wise to stop there.
For fully-fledged embedded VBA, you'll need to negotiate a licence with Microsoft.
Some applications (e.g. Reuters Kobra) licence the VBA interface in a similar way.

there's already a topic about it but I haven't found a helpful answer (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1316320/a-c-code-generator-from-an-xml-spec).
I'm looking for a library or a tool which can read xsd grammar and then can write a corresponding object in c++ (.hpp, .cpp,...).
Except codesynthsesis, does someone know much about it?
There is a huge list of data binding code generators on http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema , just search the site for C++. Also please describe in detail why the answers on A C++ code generator from an XML spec weren't helpful.
The information at http://www.rpbourret.com/xml/XMLDataBinding.htm can be very helpful. But beware that the list of tools on that web site is slowly getting out of date. The W3C list of data binding tools http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema is outdated (the last update was way back in 2009).
I'm using the GSOAP toolkit from SourceForge for all of my XML C++ projects. Also works for plain C. It binds C/C++ to XML schemas automatically and is fully compliant with industry standards for XML, WSDL, SOAP, REST, XML-RPC, JSON, and WS-* protocols.
GSOAP is actively maintained, easy to use, and pretty efficient too.

I want to scan a PowerPoint 2007 file, but I'm trying to do it with C++. Is there any Open XML parser for C++?
Here's a newly released C library called libOPC which has the same intent as the Open XML SDK, but can be used in all of Linux/Windows/Mac/etc. You can read about it here: libOPC version 0.0.1 released and get the code from CodePlex (be sure to check the documentation page for demo videos).
Not yet. But you can make one. The standards specification files are pretty clear, aren't they ;)
Alternatively you can convert http://phppowerpoint.codeplex.com/ using http://github.com/facebook/hiphop-php
Good luck!
Another option is try c++ binding directly. (more useful when you want to check specific small part of document)
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IDL_Files_and_Cpp#Concrete_Example
There are several.
Xerces is the most comprehensive: http://xerces.apache.org/
TinyXML is popular: http://www.grinninglizard.com/tinyxml/
Expat is my favorite: http://expat.sourceforge.net/
You can find more information on Google : XML parser C++

I'd like to know if there's a tool which allows you to do class definition based on an XML format. I'm not looking for data binding. Anyone can help ?
Thanks
When I had this problem a few years back, I wrote a Python tool to execute Python code embedded in text files so that I could generate C++ code with Python inside the C++: http://nedbatchelder.com/code/cog/
I know of two tools both of them are commercial products
http://www.codesynthesis.com/products/xsd/
Is open source GPL - commercial licence is avalable for commercial use
I think this is/was used by gSOAP
http://www.artima.com/cppsource/xml_data_binding.html
http://www.codalogic.com/lmx/
don't know any more than the web site
I hope this helps.
Update:
Just found this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML_data_binding#C.2B.2B
Update 2:
This is great, I have been looking for an open source package to do this for ages and your question has just helped my find it:

YACC or BISON may be what you are after.
Are UML Class Diagrams what you are looking for?

We want to include data visualization in our desktop GUI (mostly timelines and graphs; clickable, draggable). We want to restrict to open-source, non-copyleft C++ libraries that allow commercial use and are portable across many platforms. Which library can I use? Our GUI is based on WxWidgets.
there is VTK.
And if data visualization is your thing, have a look at opendx too.
I think this question would be easier to answer if you also stated which other GUI components you use. Perhaps that limits the choice of available libraries. Since you're C++ and cross-platform, maybe wxWindows? Would be good not to have to guess.
