Hi,
I have an XSD model where I have extended SchoolBook to extend Book.
However after extending i am able to add elements to the school book but
i am not able to attributes to school book. The attached xsd has an
element an attribute for school book. Commenting out, the attribute
makes the schema valid.
I am curious to know why this restriction is present in the first place?
Thanks,
Kannan
