Hi,
Suppose after loading a schema I am examining the different element and
attribute declarations and trying to record the facets against them.
1. ---> I have with me (XSDElementDeclaration) or
(XSDAttributeDeclaration) instances as starting points (and they are not
refernces and if they are they have been resolved).
2. ----> On either of these declarations I can invoke the following to
obtain typedenitions
XSDTypeDefinition typeDef1= decl .getTypeDefinition() //decl is either
(XSDElementDeclaration) or (XSDAttributeDeclaration)
or
XSDTypeDefinition typeDef2= decl.getAnonymousTypeDefinition() //decl is
either (XSDElementDeclaration) or (XSDAttributeDeclaration)
//here using getAnonymousTypeDefinition()
3.---> If a typeDefinition is an instance of XSDSimpleTypeDefinition they are
usable for obtaining facets.
4.---> I can obtain further XSDSimpleTypeDefinitions by invoking
getSimpleType() on these typedefs.
XSDSimpleTypeDefinition typeDef3= typeDef.getSimpleType() //typeDef can be
typeDef1 or typeDef2
5.---> I can have another typedef from this typedef
XSDTypeDefinition typeDef4 = typeDef3.getBaseType(); //lets assume this
base type is the last base.
6.----> All of these typeDefinitions are simpleTypeDefinitions- typeDef1,
typeDef2, typeDef3, typeDef4 and more than one m ay be not null.
----------------------> Q) Which typedef do I use to obtain the facets-
enumeration, min, max, pattern etc. for
----------------------> a)Elem ents
----------------------> b)Attributes
---------------------->---------------------->???????
(Do I simply try to obtain facets from all of them and if the facets are
not null record them ? Has someone documented some guidelines?)
Thank you.

Hi,
If you do xsdSimpleTypeDefinition.getFacets() you'll get all the facets that are
in effect for that type, whether they be inherited or declared locally; the
getEffectiveXyzFacet methods return the facet from this list or null. You
shouldn't have to walk through base type hierarchies since the information has
already be gathered for you. Note that if you do
xsdSimpleTypeDefinition.getFacetContents(), you'll get precisely those facets
actually declared in the type and the getXyzFacet methods return the facet from
this list or null. Also note that you shouldn't need to access the anonymous
type directly, since getTypeDefinition will return the anonymous type or the
named type as appropriate.
