Hi. In the W3C Recommendation I found following statement:
<< [...]. The fixed attribute is used in both attribute and element declarations to ensure that the attributes and elements are set to particular values. For example, po.xsd contains a declaration for the country attribute, which is declared with a fixed value US. This declaration means that the appearance of a country attribute in an instance document is optional [...], although if the attribute does appear, its value must be US, and if the attribute does not appear, the schema processor will provide a country attribute with the value US.[...] >> (see W3C Recommendation, 2 May 2001, XML Schema Part0) First of all, does Xerces-J v2.x supports/implements this feature? I'm currently using JDOM v1.0b8 on top of Xerces-J v2.4.0 and every time I try to get a value of an unset attribute/value which should have a fixed value, I get a null reference. JDOM uses a org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser, validation is enabled and feature http://apache.org.xml.features/validation/schema is true. The schema processor seams not to work properly. What could be wrong? Thanks for help/hints.
