hmm, I am still stuck, I need to add some facets in the generated schema, and therefore cannot just simple reference the type from the other schema,
it seems I need to do something like this in the generated schema: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://foo/barGenerated" xmlns:fooGenerated="http://foo/barGenerated" xmlns:foo="http://foo/bar" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0"> <xs:import namespace="http://foo/bar" /> <xs:element name="bla"> <xs:complexType> <xs:simpleContent> <xs:extension base="fooGenerated:blaBaseType"> <xs:attributeGroup ref="foo:stringAttributes" /> </xs:extension> </xs:simpleContent> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> <xs:simpleType name="blaBaseType"> <xs:restriction base="xs:string"> <xs:pattern value="[0-3][0-9]-[A-Za-z]{3}-[1|2][0-9]{3}" /> </xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> </schema> where the attributeGroup is located in a pre-existing schema <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://foo/bar" attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0"> <xs:attributeGroup name="stringAttributes"> <xs:attribute name="lang" type="xs:string" use="optional" /> <xs:attribute name="index" type="xs:int" use="optional" default="1" /> </xs:attributeGroup> </xs:schema> I now have the problem that I don't know how to create a anonymous complexType for the element definition - any help would be appreciated... thx, Philipp philipp_s wrote: > > Hi Werner, > > let's assume we have a schema like this, containing an attribute group > definition: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" > xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" > targetNamespace="http://foo/bar" elementFormDefault="qualified" > version="1.0"> > <xs:attributeGroup name="someAttributes"> > <xs:attribute name="index" type="xs:string" use="optional" > default="1" /> > <xs:attribute name="lang" type="xs:string" use="optinal" /> > </xs:attributeGroup> > </Schema> > > now I want to programmatically generate a schema that uses the attribute > group for an element definition based on the xs:string, it should look > something like this: > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" > xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" > targetNamespace="http://foo/barGenerated" xmlns:foo="http://foo/bar" > elementFormDefault="qualified" version="1.0"> > <xs:element name="bla"> > <xs:complexType> > <xs:simpleContent> > <xs:restriction base="xs:string"></xs:restriction> > </xs:simpleContent> > <xs:attributeGroup ref="foo:someAttributes" /> > </xs:complexType> > </xs:element> > </schema> > > But it seems that doesn't work at all, so now I reverted to declare not an > attributeGroup but an element type in the pre-existing schema: > > <xs:complexType name="fooType"> > <xs:simpleContent> > <xs:extension base="xs:string"> > <xs:attribute name="lang" type="xs:string" use="optional" /> > <xs:attribute name="index" type="xs:int" use="optional" > default="1" /> > </xs:extension> > </xs:simpleContent> > </xs:complexType> > > and reference that in the generated schema. > > > thx, > > Philipp > > > Werner Guttmann wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> can you show me one ro two example of the (anonymuous) type definitions >> you'd like to create ? >> >> Thanks >> Werner >> >> philipp_s wrote: >>> When programmatically creating a schema using castor, I now need to add >>> an >>> attributeGroup to an element (type) declaration - how can I do that? >>> >>> thx, >>> >>> Philipp >> >> --------------------------------------------------------------------- >> To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: >> >> http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email >> >> >> >> > > -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/programmatic-schema-generation%3A-how-to-add-an-attributeGroup-to-an-element-%28type%29-declaration-tp24147982p24186553.html Sent from the Castor - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
