I'm having trouble validating what appears to me to be a perfectly valid
schema. The problem seems to be to do with my minOccurs and maxOccurs
attributes for an element with complex content.

When they are set to minOccurs=5000 maxOccurs=5000 I see the message in
the subject string above. When they are set to minOccurs=1
maxOccurs=5000 then everything is fine. Similarly, minOccurs=4000 and
maxOccurs=4000 works (but is suprisingly slow).

Is there some fundamental limitation with XSD that I'm missing here?

I've attached the sample XSD and a test program.

Thanks,
Paul.

Paul,

In order to validate the Unique Particle Attribute rule, the XSD model
builds a finite state machine and that machine can get very large very
quickly. An <all> content model is the worst example of this since it
will produce n! (factorial) states. To prevent disaster (exhausting
memory) we limit the size of the machine we will produce and when that
limit is reached we produce the message your see. It strikes me that
the message should really be a warning and not an error, since it just
means there is a constraint that isn't being validated, not that the
schema is bad...

Thanks for the response, I'll be able to code around this in my own

change the testcase below to indicate maxOccurs="4997" minOccurs="4997"
then instead of getting the error message the following NPE is thrown:

I'm guessing this is not the expected behaviour :-)

No, you guess correctly. ;-) Please open a bugzilla and I'll fix it for
tomorrow's build.

Paul,

In order to validate the Unique Particle Attribute rule, the XSD model
builds a finite state machine and that machine can get very large very
quickly. An <all> content model is the worst example of this since it
will produce n! (factorial) states. To prevent disaster (exhausting
memory) we limit the size of the machine we will produce and when that
limit is reached we produce the message your see. It strikes me that
the message should really be a warning and not an error, since it just
means there is a constraint that isn't being validated, not that the
schema is bad...

Thanks for the response, I'll be able to code around this in my own
logic. However, it turns out that there is another related problem. If I
change the testcase below to indicate maxOccurs="4997" minOccurs="4997"
then instead of getting the error message the following NPE is thrown:
