5272 2007-11-16 21:28:31 +0000 Can a data element contain more than one document ? 2007-11-29 19:31:50 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified SML Interchange Format unspecified PC Windows XP RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal LC 1 popescu popescu public-sml oldest_to_newest 17783 0 popescu 2007-11-16 21:28:31 +0000 I am going through the IF xsd file and the IF spec and could not find anywhere specified that a data element should contain one and only one instance of a definition or instance document. Since this is not clearly stated and since the data element allows any content, somebody may be inclined to 'group' documents under a data element (I was asked by an external person if the spec allows this) 17784 1 popescu 2007-11-16 21:53:58 +0000 Just after I opened this defect I noticed this under section 5.2 which covers what I thought was missing ( my search for 'data' element occurrences did not return this section) Section 5.2 : Each document in the interchange set MUST be represented in the SML-IF document >>by a separate document element<< as follows: 1. Each definition document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/definitions/document element. The order of the document children is not significant. 2. Each instance document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/instances/document element. The order of the document children is not significant. I am not closing this defect as invalid because: 1. The question I was trying to get answer to is at bit hidden under this section. The fact that only one document can be contained by a ‘data’ element should be probably stated a bit sooner and be more visible. 2. In the text above, bullet 1 and 2 say that a definition or instance document appears as a ‘child of a model/definitions/document element’ ; this is incorrect, it should be ‘child of a model/definitions/document/data element’ 17785 2 pratul.dublish 2007-11-16 22:43:21 +0000 Agree with Valentina - we should be explicit that a data element can contain AT MOST ONE instance of a definition or instance document. Per Bug 5247, we need to allow the case where a data element has no instance/definition document 17806 3 pratul.dublish 2007-11-19 21:50:01 +0000 Pls fix as per comment #2 17826 4 popescu 2007-11-21 18:12:33 +0000 Changes : - Non-Normative section, Section 4 1. Pseudo schema notation : updated comments to read <data> xs:any <!—At most one definition document goes here> </data> <data> xs:any<!—At most one instance document goes here> </data> 2. Below this schema, replaced : Every document in the interchange set appears as content of a document element [...] with Every document in the interchange set appears as content of a document/data element [...]There can be at most one document contained by a document/data element. - Normative section, 5.2 SML-IF Documents : Replaced: Each definition document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/definitions/document element. with: Each definition document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/definitions/document/data element. The model/definitions/document/data element MUST contain at most one definition document. Replaced: Each instance document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/instances/document element. with: Each instance document in the interchange set MUST appear as a child of a model/instances/document/data element. The model/definitions/document/data element MUST contain at most one instance document. 17834 5 popescu 2007-11-22 16:18:53 +0000 correction to changes described in comment #4 Changes for review: - Non-Normative section, Section 4 1.
