Hi,
there are a number of formats out the (SRW, OAI-PMH, Atom, to name a
few) in which a schema describes an XML based container for
domain-specific objects. For instance, for the Atom syndication
format, it may be custom-defined XML content that's carried in a
<content> element inside an entry. In the case of SRW (a protocol used
in information retrieval systems, such as search engines), the
children of <recordData> contain XML that's specific to a particular
system.
To make this more concrete: The Atom schema says:
<xs:sequence>
<xs:any namespace="##other" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
</xs:sequence>
whereas the SRW schema says:
<xsd:element name="recordData" type="stringOrXmlFragment" nillable="false"/>
where stringOrXmlFragment is defined similarly:
<xsd:complexType name="stringOrXmlFragment" mixed="true">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:any namespace="##any" processContents="lax" minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
My question: is it possible to apply one or more schemata to the
elements that would show up in "xsd:any" and if so, can Castor
generate the code for this?
Right now, Castor generates nodes of "AnyNode" type, and it's
extremely awkward to work with.
