Christoph Kutzinski commented on XMLBEANS-178: ---------------------------------------------- I'm experiencing a problem probably cause by this. I have two schemas with different namespaces e.g. Schema A: <xs:schema xmlns:myname="http://www.example.com/myname" targetNamespace="http://www.example.com/myname" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" > <xs:complexType name="typeA"> <xs:extension base="abstractTypeA" /> </xs:complexType> </xs:schema> Schema B: <xs:schema xmlns:myname="http://www.example.com/basic/myname" <= Note the "basic" targetNamespace="http://www.example.com/basic/myname" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" > <xs:complexType name="typeB"> <xs:extension base="abstractTypeB" /> </xs:complexType> </xs:schema> With this schemas XMLBeans will generate XML files which look like these: <element xmlns:myname="http://www.example.com/myname" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <abstractTypeA xsi:type="myname:typeA" /> <abstractTypeB xsi:type="myname:typeB" /> </element> I.e. both namespaces are mapped to the same prefix and the second namespace is missing from the list of the namespaces! > Better control of namespace prefixes used > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: XMLBEANS-178 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-178 > Project: XMLBeans > Type: Improvement > Components: Cursor > Reporter: Radu Preotiuc-Pietro > Fix For: TBD > > There have been a number of messages asking for a better control of namespace > declarations inserted by XmlBeans when saving documents, than offered by > XmlOptions.setSaveSuggestedPrefixes(). > One issue is the use of xsi:type: when XmlBeans needs to insert an xsi:type > attribute it needs to pick a prefix for the value of xsi:type and at that > point the setSaveSuggestedPrefixes() are not available. Once the prefix is > part of the attribute value, it can no longer be changed (unless directly by > user) so the prefix declaration will end up in the final document, which may > be undesireable. > One other thing that was suggested was to pick the default prefix more > intelligently, for example use the prefix used in the Schema to declare > components in that namespace, but that's trickier to do (you can declare > QNames without using prefixes) and also involves changes in the binary format. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
