extracting common used props

<?php

use Nieuwland\OgcSerializer\Generic\ServiceCapabilitiesFactory;
use Nieuwland\OgcSerializer\SerializerFactory;

$serializer   = SerializerFactory::create();
/** @var Capabilities130 $capabilities */
$capabilities = $serializer->deserialize($xml, Capabilities130::class, 'xml');
$genericCapabilities = ServiceCapabilitiesFactory::create($capabilities);
$genericCapabilities->getLayerNames();

WFS schema

<?php

use Nieuwland\OgcSerializer\Utils\WfsSchemaElement;

$reader = new WfsSchemaReader()
$fields = $reader->extractFields($xml, 'bestuurlijkegrenzen:gemeenten');
