That was really tough. I wish I understood my code better. Actually, the problem is that the attributeGroup code was written and contributed by someone else. And, apparently that code requires an N level intelligence to understand but I only have an N-1 level brain. More seriously, the specific problem was that there is a section of code that looks at the attributeGroup references in each element, and recursively replaces those references with the attributes defined in the referenced attributeGroup definition. So, in our case, the attributes defined in attributeGroup "long.att" (and the attributes in attributeGroups that *it* references) need to be inserted into the element that references attributeGroup "spirit:long.att". The existing code was failing to do that because the reference (but not the name of the definition) included a namespace prefix. I've fixed that now. As always, generateDS.py does not really understand namespace prefixes. But, as long as no one uses two attributeGroups with the same name but different namespace prefixes in the same schema, we are OK. I did a spot check of the code that we now generate from the Spirit XML schema. It does, now, successfully insert the attributes in attributeGroup "long.att" (and the attributes in the attributeGroup that it references) into the elements that reference attributeGroup "spirit:long.att". As before, a patched version is in a separate email. Please let me know if it works for you. Thanks again for reporting this, and especially for setting me straight when I went off into the ditch thinking that we could just throw away those references. - Dave -- Dave Kuhlman http://www.rexx.com/~dkuhlman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
