Here is my understanding of the following statement:
3461 1. from the locations identified by the import statement(s) for the
namespace. Locations MUST NOT
3462 be searched recursively in order to locate artifacts (i.e. only a
one-level search is performed).
Let's say we have 3 contributions: C1, C2 and C3.
Case 1:
C1: import namespace="http://ns1"; location="C2"
C2: export namespace="http://ns1";
C3: export namespace="http://ns1";
To resolve an XML artifact (for example, an XSD type {http://ns1}Type1) for
C1, we first try C2 (as indicated by the @location). If C2 contains the XSD
Type {http://ns1}Type1, use it. Otherwise try C1. When C2 is searched, only
the top-level artifacts within C2 are checked. I think that's the behavior
we have in ModelResolvers.
Case 2:
C1: import namespace="http://ns1";
C2: export namespace="http://ns1";
C3: export namespace="http://ns1";
The @location is not present, then C2 and C3 are searched as both of them
export http://ns1.

Subject: Re: [2.x] 11.2.1 - SCA Artifact Resolution Mechanism
OK Ram, interesting that we are doing it back to front. Are we also
applying the "only one-level search is performed" rule?
Hi Simon,
I assume that, since we only use ModelResolvers to identify the artifacts
and resolve
them accordingly, the rule of "only one-level search is performed" is not
applicable.
Correct me if my assumptions is wrong.
