Hello, my first time posting on this list. I've taken over some code
that was written several years ago and I'm supposed to update it. One of
the things the code does is parse an xml schema. I encountered a problem
when I upgraded xerces to 2.9.1: The method
XSElementDeclaration.getAnnotationAttrs() is no longer available. I
googled for getAnnotationAttrs to see if I could find information on
what I should use instead but google returned zero hits, heh.
Hmm, I checked which version of xerces-j the old code base ships with
and it was 2.3.0. Then I discovered that if I replace the .jar-file that
ships with code base with the official one the code no longer compiles
due to getAnnotationAttrs() being missing. So no wonder there were no
hits on google, this is a modified version...so I guess my question is
more general then: How do I get the annotations in the example schema
below for my elements?
Let me clarify with an example schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
xmlns:foo="http://www.foobar.com/foo";>
<xs:element name="movies">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="movie" type="xs:string"
foo:bar="somevalue"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>
In the old code base with the ancient xerces, I have a class
representing simple elements. That class is constructed using an
XSParticle and a path, and through that particle I could call getTerm()
and cast the return value to XSElementDeclaration and then call
getAnnotationAttrs which returns a List. For the simple element movive
that list would contain three strings:
"http://www.foobar.com/foo";
"bar"
"somevalue"
My question is, using xerces 2.9.1: How can I replace the call to the
now missing method XSElementDeclaration.getAnnotationAttrs() in order to
get the annotations (if that's the proper word) where they appear in the
schema? I noticed the method getAnnotations() which I tried calling in a
number of places but it always returns an XSObjectList with 0 items...
Sorry for not posting a complete program, I felt it would be too long.
