Hello Mr Glavassevich and thanks for your reply. So basically what
you're saying is that it is not possible, while parsing the schema, to
be informated that (for example): "this complex element has these simple
elements as child elements, it also has an xsd:any"? The information
that there's an xsd:any is completely lost?

Hi Eric,
You're basically looking for which particle matched each element in the
instance. This information is not available in the PSVI and not readily
available from Xerces. Someone else asked a related question [1] a few
years back. Might not be too difficult to handle yourself if you know
that the sequences will always be simple.
Thanks.
