http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6465 Summary: Namespace fixup and inherited attributes Product: XML Schema Version: 1.1 only Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows XP Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Structures: XSD Part 1 AssignedTo: cmsmcq@w3.org ReportedBy: sandygao@ca.ibm.com QAContact: www-xml-schema-comments@w3.org The following is an excerpt from Michael Kay's email (member-only): http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-xml-schema-ig/2009Jan/0041.html I think that where we describe the addition of the new property [inherited attributes], we need to specify that the addition of an inherited attribute to an element should invoke namespace fixup in the same way as adding a defaulted attribute. (In most cases, of course, the namespace will already be in scope, because it will have been declared on the element from which the attribute is inherited. But namespace fixup can still be needed if the relevant prefix has been rebound or unbound at an intermediate level.) This also means that the inherited attribute may have a different prefix from the original. The current text doesn't seem to give enough detail on how the attribute information items in [inherited attributes] are constructed; I think that there is a need to spell out the properties of these information items in the same way as we do for defaulted attributes. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
