Sync DIS2012.xml and DIS7.xml

[leif81]

The file in this repo, xmlpg/DIS2012.xml and the one over in DISDescription/DIS7.xml differ slightly. They should be the same.

https://github.com/open-dis/DISDescription/blob/master/DIS7.xml

It looks to me like different fixes have gone into both so a careful merge of the two should be considered.

To avoid this, there should be only one source for these files.

Is it possible to make xmlpg generate some kind of time stamp with the git commit for the file used to generate the code?

[leif81]

@kurtsansom it probably could, that would help identify what was used to generate the code. If this would be useful to you feel free to submit a pull request.

I would be happy to make some changes. I am not sure where to start. I was able to build, and generate c++, but beyond that my java skills are mediocre.

@kurtsansom ok, I'd recommend installing Apache Netbeans for your IDE, file open the root folder with the pom.xml.

Accessing the Git sha1 in Java looks like it could be done by adding the maven git commit id plugin to the project and then reading in the properties file it generates.
