http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15124 xs:include namespace handling is broken Summary: xs:include namespace handling is broken Product: Axis Version: 1.1beta Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: Other Component: WSDL processing AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Given an XML schema file which defines a targetNamespace and which xs:includes a second schema file, which does not define a targetNamespace (because its types are supposed to be registered in the namespace of the including schema), Axis will not get the namespace right for types/elements in the included file. The reason, AFAICT, is that the SymbolTable class' algorithm for finding namespaces is to search the DOM by parent elements to find the targetNamespace definition. This is insufficient because the targetNamespace is in another DOM -- the one that was created by reading the file with the <xs:include>, and there's no way to reach attributes in that DOM from the DOM of the xs:included file. I suspect that it will be necessary to add an additional parameter to the various methods that recursively add types to the symbol table. This would bear the targetNamespace of any xs:including file and be used as a fallback when no targetNS can be found by walking the current DOM.
