getEnclosingCTDefinition() gives you the complex type that "contains" the
current element. In the case of "responsemodel", because it is a global
element declaration, there is no complex type that contains it, so
getEnclosingCTDefinition() return null.
To get the type of the element, as Maksym indicated, you should use getType
().

Please respond to
xerces-j-dev
Sorry, I've just realised that my problem was poorly stated - I'm trying to
traverse down the schema and when I try to get the XSComplexTypeDecl which
should be accessible via xsElementDecl.getEnclosingCTDefinition(), all I
get is a null.

Element responsemodel has global scope and its type has local scope.
To get element's type use
(XSComplexTypeDeclaration) xsElementDecl.getType()

Hi
I'm not too sure if this is a bug - I have a simple schema, and if I
parse the schema and begin to traverse down through the
schemagrammer, I get to the first complexType. Xerces tells me that
the element "responsemodel" is a XSElementDecl.SCOPE_GLOBAL. Is this
correct? Surely it should be a XSElementDecl.SCOPE_LOCAL? As a
consequence, I cannot get the complexType.
I'm using the latest version of xercesImpl.jar (29-Jul-2003)
