Search for Element Declaration [message #35963]

Hi there

How can I find an element(I have the namespace URI and the element name)
among the global element declarations? I know I can get all the global
element declarations and iterate through them, but isn't there a short-cut
search method that would allow me to do the same?

Thanks
Vikas

Hi Vikas,

I think XSDConcreteComponent.resolveElementDeclaration() does what you're
looking for. You can call it on any schema object and it will return the
named global element in the schema. If no such element is found, it will
create a new one, initialize the name, and return that.

Cheers,
Dave

Thanks Dave. I figured it out moments after sending the mail.
