Hi there,
I'm having a problem analysing a complex type hierarchy using the API -
below are the complex type definitions I'm using. As you can see,
USAddress derives from Address, and NYAddress derives from USAddress.
The problem I'm encountering is when analysing a derived complex type. In
the attribute uses, I get all the attributes from the subtype and its base
type(s). However, as far as element declarations go, I only get the ones
from this particular type - which in the case of the NY address is none.
To get these I have to look at the base type definitions.
This seems fair enough in some ways, but the fact that the attributes do
appear in the attribute uses list seems to contradict this approach. Does
anyone have any ideas why this approach has been taken, or is it a flaw?
<xs:complexType name="Address">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="name" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="street" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="city" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="Person" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="USAddress">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="Address">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="state" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="zip" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="Surname" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="NYAddress">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="USAddress">
<xs:attribute name="RentControlled" type="xs:boolean"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
Many thanks for your help,
Ray

locally declared content. Similarly, x.getAttributeUses() returns all
the inherited and local attributes, but x.getAttributeContents() returns
only the locally declared ones. I.e., you can view the model either
abstractly or concretely and abstract properties will say something like
"This represents the ... infoset property" whereas concrete properties
will say something like "This concrete reference represents ...". Be
sure to choose the one appropriate for what you are trying to do...

Thanks for your help both of you. Unfortunately while what you say holds
true for attributes (AttributeUses returns all, AttributeContents only
local), i find that for elements, while x.GetContent does contain the the
local ones, x.GetContentType is empty - it doesn't even contain the local
declarations.
I'm using XSD 2.0.1 if thats of any help....
Thanks again for your help - you've helped me understand the API better
certainly.

I'm not sure what you've tried to do...

Sorry for delay in responding - Indeed I was looking in the wrong place to
begin with, but your comments have pointed me to the right direction. When
analysing the subsequent XSDModelGroupDefinition, I was getting its
contents, and not its 'particles'. Once i got this list, i was able to look
through and find all the elements required. Thanks very much for your help!

Hi all,
I have read this post, and I think I have a similar problem. I'm trying to
analize some complexType like the following one:
<complexType name="ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base="tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name="centerPoint" nillable="true"
type="tns3:GeoCoordinates"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
I was using this code ("targetComplexDefinition" variable contains the
complexType):
xsdModelGroup = (XSDModelGroup)
targetComplexDefinition.getComplexType().getContent();
listOfElements = xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator = listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
XSDParticle elementParticle = (XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
...........
It works when my complexType doesn't have an "extension" tag, but it doesn't
works when I manage a complexType with an "extension" tag. Can someone
explain me way? There is any way to access to all the elements of the
complexType (including those coming from the "extension")?. Sorry if this
question is so simple. But I really don't find how to do it.
Thanks in advance,
Fran

Fran,
The getContent method returns the particle (for the model group)
physically present in that type definition. The getContentType returns
the logical/synthetic particle (if the type has complex content) and
that logical particle has a model group (sequence) that will include a
particle for the base class's contents and a particle for the content
contributed locally.

Hi Ed,
I have tried to do something like this:
=20
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();

{
XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
.............
Now, I use "getContentType", and from the particle, I try to retrieve
the sequence, in order to access to the "base" particle and the
"local" particle. But I recover wrong information. Do you know what=20
am I doing wrong?
Thank you very mucho for your help,

Fran,
I would imagine that you will get class cast exceptions because the
particles of the top level synthetic particle can refer to XSDModelGroup
(or XSDWildcard) not just XSDElementDeclaration. Only the top level
particle's content is guaranteed to be an XSDModelGroup; everywhere else
you'd better be prepared to deal with the more general cases. I think
you really need a recursive algorithm to do this properly.

Hi again Ed,
I will try to explain with more detail the results I obtain. I'm using =
this code in an recursive method and it works for all the <complexType> =
elements without problems, except for the ones including an <extension> =
tag.
Now, l will try to trace for you the execution of the program:
Step 1. As input, the complexType "targetComplexDefinition"=20
is the following:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base=3D"tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
Step 2. The program proceed without error until the arrow I have writen:
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
------> XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
Step 3. And then, and suddendly, the input of the method =
(targetComplexDefinition)
(you can see at step 1) changes to the following value:
<complexType name=3D"MapRequest">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"itiTrace" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns2:ItineraryTrace"/>
<element name=3D"mapDefinition" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
As you see, this complexType contains an element called =
"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition", which
is the original input.
Believe me. I really don't understand what's happen... I hope this post =
would be clear enough=20
so you could help me.
Thank you very much,
Fran

Fran,
I would imagine that you will get class cast exceptions because the =
particles of the top level synthetic particle can refer to XSDModelGroup =
(or XSDWildcard) not just XSDElementDeclaration. Only the top level =
particle's content is guaranteed to be an XSDModelGroup; everywhere else =
you'd better be prepared to deal with the more general cases. I think =
you really need a recursive algorithm to do this properly.

Hi Ed,
I have tried to do something like this:
=20
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
.............
Now, I use "getContentType", and from the particle, I try to =
retrieve
the sequence, in order to access to the "base" particle and the
"local" particle. But I recover wrong information. Do you know what=20
am I doing wrong?
Thank you very mucho for your help,
Fran
=20
Fran,
The getContent method returns the particle (for the model group) =
physically present in that type definition. The getContentType returns =
the logical/synthetic particle (if the type has complex content) and =
that logical particle has a model group (sequence) that will include a =
particle for the base class's contents and a particle for the content =
contributed locally.

Fran,
What you describe is exactly what I expect. That is, if you get
ScaleMapDefinitions's content type, look at that particle's model
group's first particle, that particle will be exactly the same particle
as you get for MapRequest's content type. In other words, the content
type of an extended complex type reuses (refers to) the content type of
the base type.

Ed,
I thought the base type for "ScaleMapDefitinion" was =
"tns1:MapDefinitionType".......:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
----- > <extension base=3D"TNS1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
.........And not "MapRequest". But reading your response, I see I was =
wrong.
Nevertheless, is there any way to obtain the elements in the sequence in =
"ScaleMapDefinition" complexType? In other words, I'm talking about =
obtaining a List, collection or whatever, containing:
=20
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
AND
<element name=3D"heightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
<element name=3D"weightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
(Obviously, the last two elements come from the base of the <extension> =
tag, that is:=20
<complexType name=3D"MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"heightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
<element name=3D"weightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
</sequence>
<complexType/>)
Thanks a lot for your help,

ScaleMapDefinitions's content type, look at that particle's model =
group's first particle, that particle will be exactly the same particle =
as you get for MapRequest's content type. In other words, the content =
type of an extended complex type reuses (refers to) the content type of =
the base type.

Hi again Ed,
I will try to explain with more detail the results I obtain. I'm =
using this code in an recursive method and it works for all the =
<complexType> elements without problems, except for the ones including =
an <extension> tag.
Now, l will try to trace for you the execution of the program:
Step 1. As input, the complexType "targetComplexDefinition"=20
is the following:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base=3D"tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
Step 2. The program proceed without error until the arrow I have =
writen:
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
------> XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
Step 3. And then, and suddendly, the input of the method =
(targetComplexDefinition)
(you can see at step 1) changes to the following value:
<complexType name=3D"MapRequest">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"itiTrace" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns2:ItineraryTrace"/>
<element name=3D"mapDefinition" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
As you see, this complexType contains an element called =
"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition", which
is the original input.
Believe me. I really don't understand what's happen... I hope this =
post would be clear enough=20
so you could help me.
Thank you very much,
Fran

Fran,
You are only showing me tiny little snips of your schemas (and of of
your code) so I just assumed when you showed me the second type that is
was the base of the first type. I see that it isn't. I think so far
you've essentially asked the same question three times and you've
asserted odd things like you've recovered wrong information and that
suddenly the input of the method changed, but none of that is really
helping clarify what you are actually doing and if anything serves to
confuse things further. I've told you that you can't blindly assume the
the content of the particle is an element, but you show the same code
again a second time without change. I don't get it...
I'm not a patient person and I don't want to repeat what I've already
said, so here goes one last attempt. The content model of a complex
type is a tree of particles, where the getContent() of each particle can
be an element declaration, a model group, a wildcard, or a model group
definition, and the getTerm() of each particle, which resolves element
references and model group definition references, can be an element
declaration, a model group, or a wildcard. If you want to walk the
concrete/physical structure as it appears in the source schema, you can
walk the complex type's getContent and the particle's getContent; if you
want to walk the abstract/logical structure as defined in the XML Schema
specification, you can walk the complex type's getContentType() and the
particle's getTerm(). That's all there is and those methods are
sufficient for all your purposes, so it's best to figure out how to make
those work and if you have a problem to show clearly and precisely all
the code you are executing and all the the schema constructs being
analyzed, not just snips and bits. The bottom line is that there is no
flat list of all the elements, there is only a tree and you must walk it
recursively.

Ray,
Given an XSDComplexTypeDefinition x (with complex content),
x.getContentType() will give you the complete content particle,
including anything inherited from the base type, whereas x.getContent()
will give you only the physically contained particle with only the
locally declared content. Similarly, x.getAttributeUses() returns all
the inherited and local attributes, but x.getAttributeContents() returns
only the locally declared ones. I.e., you can view the model either
abstractly or concretely and abstract properties will say something like
"This represents the ... infoset property" whereas concrete properties
will say something like "This concrete reference represents ...". Be
sure to choose the one appropriate for what you are trying to do...

Thanks for your help both of you. Unfortunately while what you say holds
true for attributes (AttributeUses returns all, AttributeContents only
local), i find that for elements, while x.GetContent does contain the the
local ones, x.GetContentType is empty - it doesn't even contain the local
declarations.
I'm using XSD 2.0.1 if thats of any help....
Thanks again for your help - you've helped me understand the API better
certainly.

Hi all,
I have read this post, and I think I have a similar problem. I'm trying to
analize some complexType like the following one:
<complexType name="ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base="tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name="centerPoint" nillable="true"
type="tns3:GeoCoordinates"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
I was using this code ("targetComplexDefinition" variable contains the
complexType):
xsdModelGroup = (XSDModelGroup)
targetComplexDefinition.getComplexType().getContent();
listOfElements = xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator = listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
XSDParticle elementParticle = (XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
...........
It works when my complexType doesn't have an "extension" tag, but it doesn't
works when I manage a complexType with an "extension" tag. Can someone
explain me way? There is any way to access to all the elements of the
complexType (including those coming from the "extension")?. Sorry if this
question is so simple. But I really don't find how to do it.
Thanks in advance,
Fran

Fran,

Hi Ed,
I have tried to do something like this:
=20
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
.............
Now, I use "getContentType", and from the particle, I try to retrieve
the sequence, in order to access to the "base" particle and the
"local" particle. But I recover wrong information. Do you know what=20
am I doing wrong?
Thank you very mucho for your help,

Fran,
I would imagine that you will get class cast exceptions because the
particles of the top level synthetic particle can refer to XSDModelGroup
(or XSDWildcard) not just XSDElementDeclaration. Only the top level
particle's content is guaranteed to be an XSDModelGroup; everywhere else
you'd better be prepared to deal with the more general cases. I think
you really need a recursive algorithm to do this properly.

Hi again Ed,
I will try to explain with more detail the results I obtain. I'm using =
this code in an recursive method and it works for all the <complexType> =
elements without problems, except for the ones including an <extension> =
tag.
Now, l will try to trace for you the execution of the program:
Step 1. As input, the complexType "targetComplexDefinition"=20
is the following:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base=3D"tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
Step 2. The program proceed without error until the arrow I have writen:
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
------> XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
Step 3. And then, and suddendly, the input of the method =
(targetComplexDefinition)
(you can see at step 1) changes to the following value:
<complexType name=3D"MapRequest">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"itiTrace" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns2:ItineraryTrace"/>
<element name=3D"mapDefinition" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
As you see, this complexType contains an element called =
"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition", which
is the original input.
Believe me. I really don't understand what's happen... I hope this post =
would be clear enough=20
so you could help me.
Thank you very much,
Fran

The getContent method returns the particle (for the model group) =

Fran,
What you describe is exactly what I expect. That is, if you get
ScaleMapDefinitions's content type, look at that particle's model
group's first particle, that particle will be exactly the same particle
as you get for MapRequest's content type. In other words, the content
type of an extended complex type reuses (refers to) the content type of
the base type.

Ed,
I thought the base type for "ScaleMapDefitinion" was =
"tns1:MapDefinitionType".......:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
----- > <extension base=3D"TNS1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
.........And not "MapRequest". But reading your response, I see I was =
wrong.
Nevertheless, is there any way to obtain the elements in the sequence in =
"ScaleMapDefinition" complexType? In other words, I'm talking about =
obtaining a List, collection or whatever, containing:
=20
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
AND
<element name=3D"heightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
<element name=3D"weightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
(Obviously, the last two elements come from the base of the <extension> =
tag, that is:=20
<complexType name=3D"MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"heightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
<element name=3D"weightInPixels" type=3D"xsd:int"/>
</sequence>
<complexType/>)
Thanks a lot for your help,

ScaleMapDefinitions's content type, look at that particle's model =
group's first particle, that particle will be exactly the same particle =
as you get for MapRequest's content type. In other words, the content =

Hi again Ed,
I will try to explain with more detail the results I obtain. I'm =
using this code in an recursive method and it works for all the =
<complexType> elements without problems, except for the ones including =
an <extension> tag.
Now, l will try to trace for you the execution of the program:
Step 1. As input, the complexType "targetComplexDefinition"=20
is the following:
<complexType name=3D"ScaleMapDefinition">
<complexContent>
<extension base=3D"tns1:MapDefinitionType">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"centerPoint" type=3D"tns3:GeoCoord"/>
<element name=3D"pixelSize" type=3D"xsd:double"/>
</sequence>
</extension>
</complexContent>
</complexType>
Step 2. The program proceed without error until the arrow I have =
writen:
XSDParticle complexTypeContent =3D=20
(XSDParticle) targetComplexDefinition.getContentType();
XSDModelGroup xsdModelGroup =3D=20
(XSDModelGroup)complexTypeContent.getContent();
listOfElements =3D xsdModelGroup.getContents();
Iterator elementsIterator =3D listOfElements.iterator();
while(elementsIterator.hasNext())
{
------> XSDParticle elementParticle =3D=20
(XSDParticle) elementsIterator.next();
XSDElementDeclaration element =3D=20
(XSDElementDeclaration)elementParticle.getContent();
Step 3. And then, and suddendly, the input of the method =
(targetComplexDefinition)
(you can see at step 1) changes to the following value:
<complexType name=3D"MapRequest">
<sequence>
<element name=3D"itiTrace" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns2:ItineraryTrace"/>
<element name=3D"mapDefinition" nillable=3D"true" =
type=3D"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
As you see, this complexType contains an element called =
"tns1:ScaleMapDefinition", which
is the original input.
Believe me. I really don't understand what's happen... I hope this =
post would be clear enough=20
so you could help me.
Thank you very much,
Fran

Fran,
You are only showing me tiny little snips of your schemas (and of of
your code) so I just assumed when you showed me the second type that is
was the base of the first type. I see that it isn't. I think so far
you've essentially asked the same question three times and you've
asserted odd things like you've recovered wrong information and that
suddenly the input of the method changed, but none of that is really
helping clarify what you are actually doing and if anything serves to
confuse things further. I've told you that you can't blindly assume the
the content of the particle is an element, but you show the same code
again a second time without change. I don't get it...
I'm not a patient person and I don't want to repeat what I've already
said, so here goes one last attempt. The content model of a complex
type is a tree of particles, where the getContent() of each particle can
be an element declaration, a model group, a wildcard, or a model group
definition, and the getTerm() of each particle, which resolves element
references and model group definition references, can be an element
declaration, a model group, or a wildcard. If you want to walk the
concrete/physical structure as it appears in the source schema, you can
walk the complex type's getContent and the particle's getContent; if you
want to walk the abstract/logical structure as defined in the XML Schema
specification, you can walk the complex type's getContentType() and the
particle's getTerm(). That's all there is and those methods are
sufficient for all your purposes, so it's best to figure out how to make
those work and if you have a problem to show clearly and precisely all
the code you are executing and all the the schema constructs being
analyzed, not just snips and bits. The bottom line is that there is no
flat list of all the elements, there is only a tree and you must walk it
recursively.
