Usually (that is, unless you have specific requirements that deviate from 
XMLSchema-specified behavior), the name in the instance doc should be the one 
returned by the SchemaLocalElement.getName() API. That QName will automatically 
have taken into account all elementForm rules from the Schema.

"elementFormDefault" value?
        
        
        Thanks for your response!
        
        In my application we use DOM API to build document.
        
        When the schema is defined using elementFormDefault="unqualified"  
        I like to create  document element using 
org.w3c.dom.Document.createElementNS(ns, prefix:localName)
        and when it is  elementFormDefault="qualified"  using 
org.w3c.dom.Document.createElementNS(ns, localName), no prefix in this case.
        
        Alternatively, I like to create a document element with prefix if its 
local elements are not qualified otherwise no prefix.
        
        Any suggestions on this.
        
        Regards
        Murali

                There is no API to get the value for that attribute, because it 
is only a syntactic-level construct. Incidentally, global elements/types are 
not affected at all by elementFormDefault (only local elements are).

                        Hi All,
                        Will you please respond to my question?
                        
                        My question restated, goal is not know 
"elementFormDefault" value of the schema where the global element/type is 
defined.
                        
                        How do I do this with xmlbeans API?
                        
                        Regards
                        Murali

                                Hi All, 
                                I load schema document using snippet below 
                                       File schFile = new 
File("c:\\tmp\\schema.xsd"); 
                                       SchemaDocument schemaDoc = 
SchemaDocument.Factory.parse(schFile); 
                                       XmlOptions options = new XmlOptions(); 
                                       options.setCompileDownloadUrls(); 
                                       SchemaTypeSystem ts = 
XmlBeans.compileXsd(new SchemaDocument[] { schemaDoc }, 
XmlBeans.getContextTypeLoader(), options); 
                                       SchemaTypeLoader loader = 
XmlBeans.typeLoaderUnion(new SchemaTypeLoader[] { 
XmlBeans.getContextTypeLoader(), ts }); 
                                
                                
                                Query given element's definition by 
                                       SchemaGlobalElement typeADef = 
loader.findElement(new QName("http://xml.netbeans.org/schema/Synchronous"; 
<http://xml.netbeans.org/schema/Synchronous> , "typeA")); 
                                
                                How do I find schema attribute 
"elementFormDefault" value for this element? 
                                
                                By exploring API, it is possible by, 
schemaDoc.getSchema().getElementFormDefault(). Is it possible to navigate from 
SchemaGlobalElement object to its Schema? I could not find an API for this. 
                                
                                Is there another way to do this? 
                                
                                My goal is to query a given element's schema 
attribute "elementFormDefault"? 
                                
                                
                                Thanks for your help!
