Re: Can´t acess child elements definition

[Maksym Kovalenko]

For child element you can extract its declaration as the following XSElementDeclaration elDecl = ((ElementPSVI) childElement).getElementDeclaration(); The error in the code you've provided is that to get element declaration for child elements you need to process content of the root element. model.getComponents(XSConstants.ELEMENT_DECLARATION); contains only information for elements defined in the schema's top level.
