Hi there, I need to be able to parse (either via DOM or SAX) an XML with namespace spread out in several schema; this means the final type could reside in an embedded schema a couple level deeper. I need to tell if an element is defined as a simple type or as an array type.
I took the sample jaxp.TypeInfoWriter (because I also need access to org.w3c.dom.TypeInfo); then to add a org.apache.xerces.xs.PSVIProvider to the handler, private PSVIProvider fPSVIProvider; and set it this way, org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser saxParser = new org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser(); fPSVIProvider = (PSVIProvider)saxParser; However, in the startElement( ... ) method, I did this, ElementPSVI elemPSVI = fPSVIProvider.getElementPSVI(); unfortunately, elemPSVI is always null no matter how I configure the schema validation options. So, is my approach workable? if yes, what I did wrong. Or is there better approach? ------------------------------ Also, I tried out-of-box simpletype.DatatypeInterfaceUsage sample on the provided personal.xsd and personal-schema.xml; I found the same result. But I found the underlying parsers are different between the two samples. One uses, org.apache.xerces.jaxp.SAXParserImpl, which inherits javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser the other uses, org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser I found although they have the same simple name, they don't overlap at all. So how to choose which to use one or the other? Much appreciated, David
