Another issue: setting the @minOccurs to "1" for sca:implementation
element ref in sca:ComponentType is probably too much. It makes most of
the component type files we have in Tuscany no more conforming. I'm not
sure why the implemention element is there in the componentType in the
first place.
The reason it is there is that the implementation can carry specific policy annotations like intents
and it was felt that it was better to introduce an explicit implementation element for that rather
than having to transfer such items to the <componentType/> element itself, which might become a
problem where the implementation has extensions...
<element name="componentType" type="sca:ComponentType"/>
<complexType name="ComponentType">
<complexContent>
<extension base="sca:CommonExtensionBase">
<sequence>
<element ref="sca:implementation" minOccurs="1"/>
...
Thanks,
Raymond
I agree that it is all a bit of a pain.
Yours, Mike.
