Thanks, for your reply!
That's what I thought, but trying out an example did not work out as
expected. The parser did not seem to bother with a xsd:float as a 'Yuri' in
param1 (if I coment out param2 and param3 it parses without problems) and it
seems to be mixing the float declared in param1 with the Item in param2.
SOURCE CODE:
------------
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
dbf.setNamespaceAware(true);
dbf.setValidating(true);
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
Document doc = db.parse(new File("test.xml"));
RESULT:
-------
Warning: validation was turned on but an org.xml.sax.ErrorHandler was not
set, which is probably not what is desired. Parser will use a default
ErrorHandler to print the first 10 errors. Please call
the 'setErrorHandler' method to fix this.
Error: URI=file:e:/source/java/test.xml Line=15: Datatype error: In element
'my:Item' : my item is not a float.

You mean validate "Me" against type "float"? Sure Xerces does that. This is
the reason why xsi:type exists.
I suspect that you meant xsi:type="xsd:float", where xsd is bound to the
schema namespace.

validation of polymorphic types in XML
PM instances
Please respond to
xerces-j-dev
Can Xerces validate types, as opposed to elements and attributes, in XML
instances?
...
<parameter name="param1">
<default-value xsi:type="float">Me</default-value>
</parameter>
...
Lets say the schema has something like this:
...
<xsd:element name="parameter">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="default-value"
type="xsd:anyType"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
....
WILL XERCES VALIDATE <default-value> CONTENT? I need a way to validate
parameter default values being them simple types or complex types in my XML
instance that is not known in the schema at design time.
