Did a lot of work this weekend, all interrelated and cross-checked. Uploads in progress.
Test logs are themselves maintained in version control so that (a) output changes are evident during development, and (b) other developers can see what is expected.
a. X3D Schema and X3DUOM
http://web3d.org/specifications
- annotation appinfo added to a number of String enumeration values, which can be either strict choices or optional values in X3D spec.
- X3DUOM updated to indicate simpleType as well as baseType for each field when appropriate, giving fuller expression to object model.
- X3DUOM name attributes now appear first for readability.
- These changes supported the follow-on library improvements, additional work also applied.
-------
b. X3DJSAIL
X3D Java Scene Access Interface Library (X3DJSAIL)
https://www.web3d.org/specifications/java/X3DJSAIL.html
- Corresponding update applied to X3DJSAIL with only minor tweaks.
-------
c. X3D Ontology
https://www.web3d.org/x3d/content/semantics/semantics.html
- simple-type enumeration lists added, excerpt follows
- typing of fields now reflects these simple types
- name attribute typing is also stricter, e.g. some names are NMTOKEN
- found feature in protege for diagnosing error lines in turtle .ttl
- ready for further work on accessType representations, continuing prior efforts
:closureTypeChoices rdf:type rdfs:Datatype ;
rdfs:label "closureTypeChoices" ;
dc:description "closureTypeChoices are strictly allowed enumeration values for ArcClose2D closureType field" ;
rdfs:range xs:NMTOKEN ;
rdfs:domain [ owl:unionOf ( 'PIE' 'CHORD' ) ] .
# PIE "Connects arc endpoints to center, forming a pie wedge"
# CHORD "Connects arc endpoints directly to each other, as in chord on a circle"
-------
d. x3d.py X3DPSAIL package
https://www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/python/python.html
- renamed toXML() as XML(), added XML() export methods to all X3D types
- used these for export output for all field values for consistency
- added unit tests for all types, tests successful

https://www.web3d.org/x3d/stylesheets/python/build.examples.log.txt
example excerpts:
- - - - - - - - - -
SFString test = 'test setter'
SFString test.value = test setter
SFString test.XML() = test setter
SFString isValidSFString(test)=True
SFString assertValidSFString(test)
MFString test = [test, setters and getters]
MFString test.value = ['test', 'setters and getters']
MFString test.XML() = "test" "setters and getters"
MFString isValidMFString(test)=True
MFString assertValidMFString(test)
downcasting by dereferencing simple-list value=[one], type=<class 'x3d.MFString'> as one
SFString test downcast legal singleton: SFString(MFString("one"))='one', type=<class 'x3d.SFString'>
MFString test upcast legal SF value: MFString(SFString("two"))=['two'], type=<class 'x3d.MFString'>

<Group DEF='B'/>
<Shape DEF='C'>
<Appearance DEF='D'>
<Material DEF='E'/>
</Appearance>

<WorldInfo DEF='F'/>
- - - - - - - - - -
- simple-type enumeration lists added, excerpt follows
- added assertion methods to check enumeration values valid, throws exception otherwise
CLOSURETYPECHOICES = (
# strict set of allowed values follow, no other values are valid
'PIE', # Connects arc endpoints to center, forming a pie wedge
'CHORD' # Connects arc endpoints directly to each other, as in chord on a circle
)
def assertValidClosureType(fieldName, value):
"""
Utility function to assert type validity of closureTypeChoices value, otherwise raise X3DTypeError with diagnostic message.
Note MFString enumeration values are provided in XML syntax, so check accordingly.
"""
if not value:
return True # no failure on empty defaults
if isinstance(value,SFString) or isinstance(value,str):
if str(value) in CLOSURETYPECHOICES:
return True
raise X3DTypeError(fieldName + ' value=' + value + ' does not match allowed enumerations in CLOSURETYPECHOICES=' + str(CLOSURETYPECHOICES))
if isinstance(value,MFString):
if MFString(value).XML() in CLOSURETYPECHOICES:
return True
raise X3DTypeError(fieldName + ' value=' + MFString(value).XML() + ' does not match allowed enumerations in CLOSURETYPECHOICES=' + str(CLOSURETYPECHOICES))
class ArcClose2D(_X3DGeometryNode):
# ...
@property # getter - - - - - - - - - -
def closureType(self):
"""Defines whether pair of line segments connect to center (PIE), or single line-segment chord connects arc endpoints (CHORD)."""
return self.__closureType
@closureType.setter
def closureType(self, closureType=None):
if closureType is None:
closureType = SFString.DEFAULT_VALUE
assertValidSFString(closureType)
assertValidClosureType('closureType', closureType)
self.__closureType = closureType

So Andreas hopefully this should give you everything you might need and expect for .XML() export.
Am hoping Loren can help me with incantation so that all we need syntactically is .XML export.
It will be straightforward to add .VRML export (.X3DV and .WRL methods perhaps) once we are satisfied with .XML for .x3d files/strings.
I like how Python usually fails bitterly until you get things exactly right.
Didn't have time to check anything with python packaging yet.
Feedback welcome.
