representation of empty entensions [message #13506] Wed, 05 March 2003 16:03 Go to next message

I noticed that eclipse and xerces (2.1) create different representations
for the following Schema:

<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:complexType name="child">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="parent">
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:extension base="child"/>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>

Eclipse represents the type "parent" like this:
type "parent"
particle (1,1)
modelgroup
particle (*)
modelgroup (the sequence)
particle (1,1)
element "foo"
And particle (*) is referenced by type "child".

In contrast, Xerces represents type "parent" like this:
type "parent"
particle (*)
modelgroup (the sequence)
particle (1,1)
element "foo"
And particle (*) is referenced by type "child".

In xerces, both types share the same particle whereas eclipse creates a
new top-level particle for type parent.

I don't understand the XSD spec at this point, does it specify a correct
representation of can you choose wether to introduce a particle for empty
extension?

Michael

I also notices the the DOM element for parent's particle is null, is this
intended?

Michael,

You ask such good questions! The XSD model definitely has this wrong; the
empty particles should be removed and the particle tree should reflect that.
Please consider opening a bugzilla defect to track this.

The root particle is "synthetic" so it doesn't correspond to any DOM element
and the value is therefore null.

Michael,

This will be fixed in the next drop of version 1.0.2; it's not fixed yet in
the current drop of version 1.0.2.
