Hello, I have what I think is a very simple question with regards to the Xerces 2 Schema API. I need to parse an XML 1.0 schema that has embedded in it attributes from another namespace. See valid schema below. You can see the namespace for instance documents is "my". But, I have also defined a "yours" namespace and is used to further annotate the two elements "my:LineItemName" and "my:LineItemNumber" with labels for each. You see how I have added the yours:label attributes? When I parse this schema in Xerces 2, how can I get to these "extra" attributes? It looks to me like Xerces 2 simply ingores any attributes/elements that are not in the target or in the "xs" namespace. Is this true? If so, what other options do I have? Thanks in advance!
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:my="my-own-namespace" targetNamespace="my-own-namespace" xmlns:yours="your-namespace" elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xs:element name="LineItemList" type="my:LineItemListType"/> <xs:complexType name="LineItemListType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="LineItem" type="my:LineItemType" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> <xs:complexType name="LineItemType"> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="LineItemName" type="xs:string" yours:label="Name Label"/> <xs:element name="LineItemNumber" yours:label="Number Label" type="xs:string"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType> </xs:schema> (A valid instance document for this is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <my:LineItemList xmlns:my="my-own-namespace"> <my:LineItem> <my:LineItemName>XYZ Phone system</my:LineItemName> <my:LineItemNumber>A12345</my:LineItemNumber> </my:LineItem> </my:LineItemList> )
