Gievn the following two files:
---
C:\customers\iExml>type date.*
date.xsd
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xsd:element name="DoB" type="xsd:date">
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:documentation>Date of
Birth</xsd:documentation>
</xsd:annotation>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
date.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<DoB xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="date.xsd"/>
C:\customers\iExml>
---
xsv (current standalone) reports that date.xml is valid, whereas XMLspy
3.5 beta 4 rejects it unless there is a date in there.
I ahve found documentation for the xsi:nullable attribute but cannot
find any explicit discussion of this issue. Which is correct, please?
Francis.
