2226 2005-09-14 19:25:42 +0000 R-234: Anonymous global type elements of same name in model group 2009-04-21 19:25:08 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified XML Schema Structures: XSD Part 1 1.0 only All All CLOSED LATER P2 normal --- 1 sandygao ht www-xml-schema-comments oldest_to_newest 6249 0 sandygao 2005-09-14 19:25:42 +0000 Is the following schema valid? <xsd:element name="elem1"> <xsd:complexType/> </xsd:element> <xsd:complexType name="type1"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element ref="elem1"/> <xsd:element ref="elem1"/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> Henry's response: Should be, but the REC language is broken here -- I'm pretty sure the intent was for this constraint to apply to two _distinct_ element declarations, which means at least one of them would have to be local, as all refs to a named top- level element decl produce the _same_ element decl. I'm not aware of any processors which complain about this case.
