It should bother you. Time to break out meta-programming skills. You
can generate either the XSD from code, code from the XSD, or code+XSD
from some other authoritative source!

There may already be tools that do one or the other of this for you. I
think I saw someone mention JAXB (never used it, so don't know about it).

Thanks for the tip. It turned out to be much easier than the tutorial
lead me to expect. If you ignore the generated code, the code is much
simpler than DOM. It gets the types right, including enums.

I am now using it to extract data about posters that I put on my home
page.

I wrote up an overview on JAXB at
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jaxb.html

The tool that make this feasible was Stylus Studio which generated a
first cut at an XSD given a sample XML file. I then polished it a bit
and tweaked it to get JAXB to generate better Java.

Every compilable program in a sense works. The problem is with your unrealistic expections on what it will do.
